Two weeks ago, when the Selection Committee announced that the 11 seed Loyola-Chicago Ramblers from the Missouri Valley Conference at 28-5 would play 6 seed Miami, they were listed by experts as a potential good team to pick for an upset. The Ramblers had dominated a traditionally top mid-major, and had also upset Florida earlier in the season.

Then, Loyola hit a last second shot to beat the Hurricanes, and stories started coming out about their 98 year old nun Sister Jean, and they became one of those fun feel-good stories of March.

But then, Loyola knocked off Tennessee and Nevada on last second clutch shots, and suddenly, the feel-good Cinderella story became a lot more.

Tonight, the Ramblers didn’t need any last second heroics. Cinderella went and knocked off Kansas State 78-62, and the 11 seed that started as a trendy upset pick for a round is now heading to San Antonio as the first team to earn their way to the Final Four.

These Ramblers play incredible defense, are extremely unselfish and always make the extra pass, and have multiple players who have proven they can make a clutch shot. And now, Cinderella has a chance to rewrite the history of the Dance. Loyola-Chicago is still dancing, and don’t be surprised if they are still dancing after the Championship game. This Cinderella doesn’t appear to have a curfew at midnight.
