FAIRFAX, Va. - Two George Mason starters, Andre Cornelius and Luke Hancock, left practice early yesterday because of injuries.

Cornelius limped off with the trainer, and Hancock was wheeled off on a rolling office chair with the shoe removed from his left foot.

Coach Jim Larranaga wouldn't comment on the injuries, or whether either or both is in jeopardy of missing the Patriots' NCAA Tournament opener against Villanova in Chicago on Friday.

George Mason is seeded eighth, Villanova ninth.

"I don't consider us the favorite," Larranaga said. "I consider us the higher seed."
