One point.
That’s how close we were last March when San Diego State beat us in the Elite Eight at March Madness.
We lost by one measly point.
A loss like that, when we could’ve made history by being the first Creighton basketball team to make the Final Four, was going to sting for a while.
Our team was hurting.
It’s as if we had our hearts ripped out of our chests.
In that moment, it was difficult to reflect on the historic run we made to the Elite Eight because the loss was so painfully close and agonizing.
