Great Tournament performances

Before today's festivites start, I thought it might be interesting to review some of the best individual tournament performances from each school.

I found a couple from WSU to get things rolling:

* Xavier McDaniel leads the tournament in career scoring average (31.3 points in five games) and rebound average (14.4). He holds the single-game record with 21 rebounds against Southern Illinois in 1985.

* McDaniel scored 34 points on 15-of-19 shooting in the 1985 championship game at Tulsa. He also grabbed 13 rebounds. In a 92-65 semifinal win over Indiana State, McDaniel scored 34 points and Aubrey Sherrod added 26, making 12 of 18 shots.

Thanks, CBS, for talking about the great MVC performers of the past.

Yeah the only one I could think of was Mike Menser in 2001. Guy was a great player for ISU back in the day ten years ago exactly lol

Only 2 Drake performances come to mind.....

Lynnrick Rogers scoring 38 to lead the 1-25 Bulldogs (yes, 1-25) to a victory over Wichita State in 1997 and then 2008 run through the tournament culminating with a 30 point victory over Illinois State.

Still remember that game in '97...drove down from DSM, and exchanged high-fives with Dolph after the game. Good times.

2005 SMS team....second round, #5 seed falling behind 25 points in the first half come back to beat #1 seed, the not so like SIU team. That was so dang exciting.

I remember that Menser game in 2001. He ended up having 24 points in that game, and I think he was named tournament MVP that year also.
