	washingtonpost.com: It's a Final: KU vs. Syracuse
		Marquette, the tournament's No. 3 seed in the Midwest, emerged as the Final Four's Cinderella thanks largely to its multi-talented 6-foot-5 guard, Dwyane Wade, who led his team to upsets of defense-minded Pittsburgh and tournament favorite Kentucky.
		Kansas dominated from every spot on the floor, scoring the bulk of its points on unchallenged layups and dispiriting dunks.
		Kansas had been favored to advance to Monday's championship game given the experience of Collison (12 points, 15 rebounds) and Hinrich (18 points, three assists), who led the squad to the 2002 Final Four, where they lost in the semifinals to eventual winner Maryland.

		Kansas did a great job defending Ricky Anderson at a similar position, but Wade is a much better athlete and can score with authority going baseline or down the middle.
		Marquette's defense should be tighter than Arizona's was in the West Region final, and Hinrich might not get the same open looks he had against Arizona.
		Marquette did a nice job on Kentucky's interior, but Collison is better than Marquis Estill and Jules Camara around the basket.

	Indian History, Part 1.
		The pious priest, Father Marquette, had long desired to extend his labors to the more remote tribes, and, in order to fit himself for his contemplated mission to the Illinois, employed a young brave of that tribe to teach him the language.
		Among the "Indian towns" noted by Marquette in 1673, as "ranged along this river," are the Ouemessourit (Missouri), the Pewaria (Peoria) and the Maha (Omaha).
		In 1808, the Osages ceded nearly all their land in Missouri to the United States, and were granted a large reservation in what is now Southern Kansas, and when in 1825, a new home was to be found for the Eastern tribes, the lands of the Kanzas and Osages were fixed upon for that purpose.
