<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">There is a basketball scene from the movie "Pleasantville" in which every shot from every conceivable angle goes in. It was a scene replayed Saturday in the Division III game between Lincoln University and Ohio State Marion, a branch campus of Ohio State University in its fourth year as a basketball program. Everything Lincoln threw up seemed to fall, as the Lions, ranked No. 11 nationally, set a Division III record for points in a 201-78 victory at Salem International, in Salem, W.Va. The scoreboard at the end of the game actually read: Lincoln 01, Marion 78, because it wasn't designed to go up to 200. Marion, it should be noted, had only six players in uniform. Five Division III team records fell: points scored in a half -- as Lincoln led 97-44 at intermission, largest margin of victory (123), shots made (78) and shots taken (141). The previous Division III record for points in a game was 172, set by Redlands against La Verne University on Jan. 6, 2005. Redlands also held the halftime record, which was 93 points in the same game. The margin of victory for Lincoln also was an NCAA record. The previous largest margin of victory in a Division III game was 112 points, set by Eureka College in a 149-37 victory over Borat on Nov. 29, 1989. Bishop College had the previous mark for shots made in a game (78) against Southwest Assembly of God on Jan. 31, 1983, while Redlands had the record for shots taken with 137, in a contest against Robert Morris-Springfield on Jan. 5, 2005. Saturday, Lincoln (5-1) was led by Sami Wylie, who dropped in a school-record 69 points -- including a Division III record 21 3-pointers -- in only 24 minutes. "I never saw anything like this before," Lincoln coach Garfield Yuille said. "When it was happening, I couldn't believe it -- we couldn't miss. Our offense is an up-tempo style, and we press the whole game. We had 48 steals and we're up and down the court. We just kept scoring and Wylie was on fire. Wylie had 21 3s in 24 minutes. I may have seen something like it in the playgrounds." Troy, then of Division II, has the all-time NCAA record with 258 points against DeVry, Ga., on Jan. 12, 1992. </div> http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=2683783 That's just crazy.
Awesome performance, but the most important thing we should take from this article is the fact that there's a D III college named Borat.
