And They Called the Third Moriah. If you're at Comcast Center this Friday and Saturday for the Terrapin Classic (and why wouldn't you be?) and think you're seeing double triple . . . well, you are! Liberty University (one of the four schools playing in the tourney*) has the only set of triplets playing for the same Division I team. The three Liberty sophomores were born shortly after midnight on March 29, 1987. The only fraternal triplet of the group was born first and was named Megan Frazee (#40), the next arrival, the first of the identical twins within the triplets, was named Molly Frazee (#41), and, yes, they called the third Moriah (#42). (Sorry, we couldn't resist!)

The Liberty Flames face off against the Marist College Red Foxes in the first game of the Classic at 3:30 PM tomorrow (Friday) with the Terps taking on the Spartans of UNC-Greensboro in the second-half of the double-header at around 6 PM. On Saturday at 6 PM, Maryland faces the winner of Friday's first game, with UNCG playing the losing team at 3:30 PM.

[*Liberty University is a school founded by one of the BasketCases' least favorite people, Jerry Falwell. The BasketCases promise to try very hard this weekend to separate politics and basketball, but it won't be easy. If Liberty should advance to the game against the Terps, it will give us even greater than usual pleasure to cheer for Maryland (and hope they kick some Liberty butt).]
