Mike Miles Jr. scored 21 points and ninth-seeded TCU got its first NCAA Tournament victory in 35 years, defeating eighth-seeded Seton Hall 69-42 on Friday night.
The Horned Frogs' last tournament victory was in 1987 against Marshall, when coach Jamie Dixon was a senior at his alma mater. They haven't had many opportunities since: This was their third appearance since 1988 and second in Dixon's six seasons.
"We got them in foul trouble early, which made them hesitant on the offensive end with their attack," said Emmanuel Miller, who had 10 points."I think going forward that's a huge thing in what we need to do because we realize how important it was to do that today." "I thought they were much more physical than us. I thought they got into us really early in the game, kind of shook us, to be honest with you," coach Kevin Willard said.
