GOIN' DANCING
YEAH!
Well, 1999 Bremerton High School alum Miah Davis is going dancing.
His Pacific Tigers are your Big West Conference tournament champions, defeating Cal State-Northridge 75-73 in Anaheim. Davis hit 2 free throws with 5 seconds left in the game to give Pacific its first NCAA Tournament berth since 1997. It is likely that the Big West will get two teams into the Dance, with regular season champ Utah State getting the at-large bid.
While most people who are somewhat familiar with West Sound basketball will consider Marvin Williams as Bremerton's best player ever, Miah Davis isn't too far behind. While at BHS, Miah led the Knights to a 5th place finish in the 3A State Tournament in 1999, his senior season. He spent a year at Modesto Junior College before moving on to Cal State Stanislaus. He transferred to Pacific in 2001, redshirting during the 2001-2002 season. He's in his final year of college basketball, and he's going to the NCAA Tournament.
That's right, a Bremerton kid is going to play in the NCAA Tournament.
Damn, this really is going to be a great NCAA Tournament. It's Evergreen State loaded, baby.
Gonzaga (Spokane). Eastern Washington (Cheney). Washington (Seattle).
And Pacific's Miah Davis (Bremerton).
I really love this time of year. Don't you?
