Scouting report: The Seahawks defeated St. Francis (N.Y.) to win their first NEC title and earn their first NCAA berth. ... Their coach certainly knows anything is possible: Whittenburg played on the 1983 North Carolina State team that upset Houston for the NCAA championship and launched the air ball that was put back for the winning points. ... Hall shot 58 percent for the season and had some rim-rattling dunks. He is working on a streak of 46 straight games in double-figures and has scored 2,262 points in his career. ... Dye has drained 91 three-point shots this season and shoots nearly 44 percent from beyond the arc. ... Former Archbishop Carroll High and Notre Dame guard Martin Inglesby is an assistant coach.
