Comments:
Syracuse would meet the Florida Gators in the NCAA Sweet Sixteen round. The game was hyped up as a match up between Florida's star freshman center Dwayne Schintzius and Syracuse's Rony Seikaly. The individual match up would end up being very lopsided as Seikaly had one of the best games of his collegiate career, scoring 33 points on 14 of 20 shooting, along with nine rebounds and two blocked shots. Schintzius, on the other hand, struggled mightily and would foul out after 29 minutes with only six points on 3 of 10 shooting.
Syracuse would have a 40-33 lead at the half. The Gators were able to keep the game close by making ten three point shots, led by guard Vernon Maxwell and forward Pat Lawrence.
