Keith Dambrot's 11th-seeded Duquesne upset BYU on Thursday, thrilling one of Dambrot's former high school players, LeBron James.
The first double-digit seed upset of March Madness was extra special for Duquesne head coach Keith Dambrot — and a certain former player of his, LeBron James. The 65-year-old Dambrot, who recently announced he will retire at the end of the season, led Duquesne to its first victory in the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament since 1969. Duquesne, a No. 11 seed, beat BYU, a No. 6 seed, 71-67 on Thursday.
The NBA legend has been watching Duquesne's recent run with interest, posting several supportive messages on social media, and was quick to celebrate after the Dukes held off a late BYU rally to punch their ticket to the second round. James' second post shouted out Duquesne associate head coach Dru Joyce III, a longtime friend and former high school teammate of James' on those teams coached by Dambrot. But James has not only been sending supportive messages.
