It's a rematch of the 2004 national title game, as UW-Stevens Point will face Williams on Saturday afternoon in Salem, with the winner taking home Walnut and Bronze.
Guilford ended the first half on a 22-5 run but Williams answered with a three-point barrage in the second half to defeat Guilford 97-88 in the first men's national semifinal.
The No. 2-ranked Ephs will be playing Saturday for the Division III men's basketball national championship for the third time. Williams shot 10-for-14 from three-point range in the second half to surge for the victory.
In total, Williams was 16-for-28 from beyond the arc, with the
16 threes setting a Final Four record.
The Ephs will be joined by UW-Stevens Point, which
jumped out to a huge lead and was up by as many as 24 points in the
second half before beating Randolph-Macon 72-60. Jared Jenkins
led the Pointers with 17 while Louis Hurd had 14.
