I'm an old Barton College Basketball player and I was there for the entire week.  I remember exactly where and what I ate the entire time in Mass.  Sounds Crazy - right ?!  I have tons of related stories but one that I must share.  I told on of my old teammates (Tim Jones) that if Barton made it to the Championship that he would have to come.  He replied sarcastically "sure" !  There is MORE drama to this story; nevertheless, he and Brad walked in the gym at tip-off.

I think everyone in Orlando heard me screaming at the end of the game!  What a way to win.  

It makes me proud that because of this year's team people here in Florida know of Barton.  It's because of the championship that when I tell people where I graduated from, they say, "Isn't that the school I saw come back at the last second on ESPN?"  I smile and say, "GO BULLDOGS!"

Congrats to the players and coaches.  Job well done!  Now... Shut these Gator Fans up down here and show them that BULLDOGS know how to repeat!

Congrats again!

I am so happy for this team!! You made me proud to be a graduate and an employee and glad to drive 12 hours to see it in person.  What an awesome experience to be in Springfield for the Championship game!!  Not only were you the best team there, you also earned the admiration and respect of the people of Springfield.  Time and again I heard about the heart you showed and what a well mannered and inspiring group of young men that you were.  Ron, you did a fabulous job and showed everyone that David can still beat Goliath. Thank you for letting us be a part of this special time. My girls will never forget this!!

dear barton mens b-ball,
that may be the most insane thing i have ever witnessed. as a 19 year old kid from gray, me, (just outside portland), it was sweet to watch you guys knock off the bigger school and rep us small towns. Anthony Atknson will get all the credit for scoring like 30 points in as many seconds, but the steals and the effort by the whole team at the end of the game was the true reason you guys won that game. im not gonna lie to you, i didn't see the game, and i had never even heard of barton prior to seeing this highlight on sportscenter. however, as soon as i did, i recorded it on tivo and showed everyone i knew and then put the youtube clip up in my myspace. and actualy, it's weird, i live in the heart of red sox nation, and they start tomorrow night, however you guys are all anyones really talking about for some reason. normally this time of year it's all sox-yanks. however right now it's sox-yanks-barton. this is proof that you guys are truely on the national level now, and in my eyes, that was probably the best finish in any game, for any sport, ever.

As a previous bulldog basketball player ('95-'99) and now a NCAA D1 soccer coach the WIN has given me and my team at Murray State University great inspiration for next season. I am so proud of the guys - you have definitely put Barton on the map! You produced the most exciting game in a long time at any level! Well done!
