It is what is known as an upset - Like Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson; or a bunch of American college kids beating the Russians in Olympic hockey; or a .500 football team destroying the #1 college football team by a 55-12 score; or a horse named "Upset" beating "Man o'War".

It is one of those things that makes sports enjoyable.

Had HC played Williams 9 more times in basketball last season, I'd still bet on the Cross to win at least 7 or 8 of the remaining 9. Willard would find a way. (Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me.........or something along those lines).

Pitt, outstanding comment on exactly the right response to all those who don't understand the true nature of the Williams game!

Hey, I didn't like losing that game either but Williams, as National Champs in D-III, simply isn't that far behind HC these days.

That was/is a pretty good club....perfectly capable of hanging with most PL teams.
