Syracuse forward Tyler Lydon has evolved into a very effective player at both ends of the floor of late, reaching double digits in scoring in 11 of the last 15 games and blocking 17 shots in the last three contests.
Malachi Richardson scored 21 of his 23 points in the second half as No. 10 Syracuse overcame a 16-point deficit to beat top-seeded Virginia, 68-62, to advance to the Final Four.
