Mine:

 

10. June 6th, 2003. Lucious Jordan announced he was transferring to Albany. That's when I knew moment #1 was going to happen.

9. Will Brown is hired as HC. I think he said we'd be in the NCAA Tournament within 5 years. It seemed like a crazy statement at the time.

8. Watching Jamar in the preseason scrimmage before his freshman year.

7. That Utah win.

6. Mike Black, left handed layup to beat Washington in the final seconds.

5. Mike Black, right handed layup to beat SBU in the final seconds of the 2013 AE tourney.

4. Jacob Iati's daggers at the end of the 2013 AE Tourney Championship. That was like a movie.

3. The three by Peter the Great this March to seal the deal over SBU.

2. 2007 Championship game at Vermont. Never won on that court before. Also like a movie.

1. 2006 Championship game at home. No suspense or drama but the first one is the sweetest.
