Lead Story
Florida State came up one win shy of cutting down the nets in Los Angeles, but a pair of Seminoles were named to the NCAA Tournament’s All-West Region team for their performances over four games.
Senior forward Phil Cofer and junior guard Terance Mann each earned that distinction as the Seminoles reached the Elite Eight for the first time in 25 years. Cofer averaged 10.5 points and five rebounds over the four games. Mann averaged 8.5 points and 4.7 rebounds while shooting 14-for-21.
Also making the regional team were Michigan’s Charles Matthews, Moritz Wagner and Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman. The Wolverines defeated the Seminoles on Saturday night, 58-54, to advance to the Final Four.
