Tom Davis' final game ended in the Sweet Sixteen, as the Hawks fell to the top-seeded (and eventual national champion) UConn Huskies. The Hawks fell behind by 7 late in the first half. After the half, they took a one point lead early in the second half with their depth and inside strength. The game was tied at 53 with 10 minutes remaining, but the Huskies pulled away to win by 10, connecting on 14 of 16 free throws.
