Saint Peter did not shock their opponents or the world.

Saint Peter’s got 14 points from Daryl Banks III and beat KC Ndefo to outsmart the Boilermakers. They had a disadvantage under the basket but never let Purdue very comfortable, punishing their mistakes on both sides of the floor.
Now the Peacocks can look to take on UCLA or UNC in the Elite Eight. They have already made history. Who knows what kind of waves they’ll make next.
