Top of the Hill
Western Kentucky, the No. 12 seed in the West Region, scored 47 points in the first half against No. 5 Drake and lead 47-38. The Hilltoppers shot a scorching 60 percent (20-for-33) from the field in the first 20 minutes, including 7-for-16 from behind the arc. Drake, who spent most of the year in the Top 25, are shooting 37 percent and will have to do much better in order to keep Western Kentucky - which did most of its damage with the starting five on the bench with foul trouble - to keep from moving on.

Oh, sure, counter my idiotic rambling wbout WKU's mascot with actual game stats and analysis.
I see how it is.
Well, someone has to know what he's talking about (knucklehead would disagree). You're definitely the mascot beat writer, and I would never step on your toes.
Some people hate mascots, but I think many of them are quite entertaining and a valuable part of sports. Especially when they start to beat the crap out of each other (I'm looking at you, Oral Roberts Golden Eagle) during a game. And how could anyone not laught at Charles Barkley's legendary abuse of mascots? I used to love it when he'd playfully coldcock a mascot and nearly sping the head off the costume.
