S14: Top State Of Virginia Scorers In The Last Four NCAA Tournaments

I have been doing all these stupid Sporting 14s on tournament scoring, and had planned on just rolling through the daily tournament posts until the NCAA March Madness wound down to nothing left. But I am a lifelong Virginia, and just got to dwelling on how poorly my home state has shown in the NCAA tournaments in recent years. So I went back through my painstakingly and dorkily compiled records, and got you right here the list of the fourteen dudes who played at Virginia schools who have scored the most points in the NCAA tournaments in the past four years. An odd thing I noticed while doing this is there are actually only four states with more college basketball teams than Virginia. Still, there's not a great amount of success from my home state. It's not a glamorous list by any means, but even small ponds have to have big fish...
#1: Eric Maynor (VCU guard; 57 total points in three games in the NCAA tourney, two in 2007 and one in 2009) - Definitely the Virginia state highlight of the past four years, nailing a last second shot to sink Duke in the first round in 2007. Considering Larry Sanders is an NBA first round draft prospect this year, and Maynor was drafted last year (and plays for Oklahoma City right now), it's really disappointing that they couldn't do shit last year when they got back in.
#2: J.R. Reynolds (Virginia guard; 54 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - Virginia basketball is low right now, what with new coach Tony Bennett having run off half the team. But he seems to have a plan, which I don't think UVA has had since Pete Gillen was run off, so hopefully that will eventually pay off.
#3: Sean Singletary (Virginia guard; 42 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - Man, Singletary/Reynolds was a serious ass combo to have at one time. And still they didn't get much out of it. In this year's ACC, a tandem like that could've finished 3rd or 4th.
#4: Gerald Lee (Old Dominion forward; 34 total points in three games in the tourney, one in 2007 and two in 2010) - The biggest forehead around, like his brain is swelling. He is part Finlandish, so maybe that's normal for Finlandish mulattoes.
#5: Jesse Pellot-Rosa (VCU guard; 34 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - Hot shot guard who had a steady wife who was his high school sweetheart and a little kid back during his senior year. It was a nice feelgood story I remember from the newspaper. I wonder how that turned out after he played a couple years in Europe?
#6: B.A. Walker (VCU guard; 30 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - B.A., as in Baracus.
#7: Frank Hassell (Old Dominion forward; 30 total points in two games in the 2010 tourney) - Damn, I watched them play two games just a month ago, and I have no idea who the fuck this even is.
#8: Deron Washington (Virginia Tech forward; 29 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - Oh man, this dude was the light-skinned speed demon dunkmaster with his mom in the front row of every game back then. One of my favorite Virginia state players of the past four year cycle.
#9: Jamon Gordon (Virginia Tech guard; 26 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - I remember him being the second half of a formidable tandem with Washington, but I always liked Deron more, mostly because his mom was big and fat and happy and excited and always cheering. More teams need their damn diabeetus moms cheering emphatically all the damn time.
#10: Jamal Shuler (VCU guard; 26 total points in two games in the 2007 tourney) - Role player.
#11: Will Thomas (George Mason forward; 25 total points in one game in the 2008 tourney) - Also rocked it out during George Mason's Final Four run, but that's outside of my four year window parameter.
#12: David Gonzalvez (Richmond guard; 18 total points in one game in the 2010 tourney) - They interview this dude on the local state AM sports radio drive home show, and he's like the nicest college basketball aged kid ever. You look at pictures of him and he looks like some weird nobby-headed Puerto Rican kid, but he comes across as so goddamned nice. Like I imagine if he reads this googling about himself, he's gonna send me an email asking how my kids are doing.
#13: Keyon Carter (Old Dominion forward; 18 total points in two games in the 2010 tourney) - Another not-Gerald Lee dude from ODU this year.
#14: Kent Bazemore (Old Dominion guard/forward; 17 total points in two games in the 2010 tourney) - Bazemore was the one dude from Old Dominion who could domineer some bullshit, both with long threes and gangsta dunks. Next year, you bitch ass Monarchs, VCU will crush your stupid blue and white asses.
