NCAA Tournament Features: Home Is Where Heart Is For Marist's Julianne Viani - Mar 27, 2007 | 12:18:32
posted by: Josh
For Marist redshirt sophomore guard Julianne Viani, home is not only where the heart is ??? it???s where the hoops are, too. After initially enrolling at Rhode Island, the Poughkeepsie, New York native elected to come home shortly after beginning summer classes during her freshman year. She reunited with Brian Giorgis, who coached Julianne in high school before taking over at Marist. Julianne comes from a basketball family and in her first college game, she was matched up against older sister Jenna, who played for Villanova. The Red Foxes lost that game, but they haven???t faltered on their home floor since. Viani played a large part in the team???s inspirational run to the Sweet 16 this season, averaging 10 points per game. The best part of it all, however, is playing close to home, where her family can cheer her on every step of the way.

It means that two very good teams with very good coaches made it to the final game.
