Comments:
Syracuse would face #6 seed San Diego State Aztecs in the first round of the 2021 NCAA Tournament. Both teams would start out scoring slowing. The Aztecs would have an early lead 18-14, with 9:41 left in the first half. Most of the Syracuse team was having problems scoring, but Buddy Boeheim was in the midst of scoring sixteen straight points for the Orange. The Orange defense clamped down, and San Diego would not score for the rest of the half. The Orange finished with an 18-0 run, leading at the half 32-18. Coach Boeheim's reserves did an outstanding job of bringing in some defensive energy. San Diego was 3-20 from three point range in the first half.
San Diego State would continue to struggle to find their shots against Syracuse's 2-3 zone for most the second half. Meanwhile Buddy Boeheim continue his hot shooting pace, including some excellent long shots on well defended plays. The Orange were never challenged in the second half, with the Aztecs never reducing the lead below 11 points. The Orange's largest lead was 27 points; some hot shooting from the Aztecs in the final minutes reduced the final scoring margin. Buddy Boeheim would finish the night with 30 points making 7 of 10 three point shots, as well as 4 of 5 shots in the paint.
