The Slipper Fit the Saints Monday Night, as Siena Danced its Way into the NCAA Tournament behind the leadership of senior guard and birthday boy, Tay Fisher, who netted 21 points in route to a MAAC Tournament Championship in Albany, New York. After little court action in the first two games and Siena’s season on the line, captain Tay Fisher shot his way into the spotlight, drilling six threes to lead his Saints to a runaway victory over conference foe Rider, 74-53. Fisher was the spark and X Factor which ignited Siena, earning the team its fourth trip to the Big Dance. Although a small mid major school, the Cinderella story for Siena may be far from over, as the Saints upset the nationally ranked Stanford Cardinal and a solid Boise State Bronco club earlier this year. A season of dreams is unfolding into a story book ending for the Saints who cut down the nets and get one step closer toward basketball immortality.
