Despite heading into the NCAA Tournament as the nation’s 8th leading scorer, little has been made of the success of Marshall University guard Jon Elmore. The junior perfectly orchestrated head coach Dan D’Antoni’s pace and space offense throughout the year, and he brought his A-game to the table against the Wichita State Shockers.

Elmore picked apart the Shockers defense and scored an efficient 27 points from all over the floor. More importantly, the nifty playmaker led the charge for his 13th seeded Thundering Herd as they upset 4th seeded Wichita State in the first round.

The natural born hardly made a blip on the national radar during the regular season, but all eyes will be on Elmore as he continues to write a Cinderella Story of his own this postseason.

Watch as Jon Elmore makes March Madness history in his first appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
