[Editors] MIT Basketball: Follow the Twitter Trend!

[Tom Gearty]

A huge thank you to everyone who tweeted about the men's basketball team.
They came through with a big win to advance to another game tonight, which
will start in an hour in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

If they win tonight (against a very tough team from Franklin & Marshall),
they play in the NCAA Division III Final Four next weekend in Salem,
Virginia.

Here's a recap of the last night's game:

The coaches and players were really grateful for your support--thank you for
helping build some buzz!

Go Tech!

Tom
