From the Rafters: Hoos win Emerald Coast Classic

It was another impressive showing from the Hoos over the weekend beating Iowa and Providence to win the Emerald Coast Classic. The tournament win marks the fourth year in a row that the Hoos have won an early season get together. It wasn’t all roses though as Providence made Virginia sweat a little bit at the beginning of the second half pulling to within five. Virginia is 6-0, ranked sixth in both the AP and Coaches Polls, and second according to Ken Pomeroy. The road gets tougher though as the Cavaliers face two top programs this week. But for now, let’s take a look at the good, the bad, and what to watch for.
