March Madness I: It wasn’t that long ago when we were wondering if this was going to be the year that Philly did not have any teams in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.
What a difference a few weeks make. Three teams are in.
La Salle will take part in the “play-in” game Wednesday night vs. Boise State in Dayton, Ohio. The game will determine the No. 13 seed in the West Region, with the winner facing No. 4 seed Kansas State Friday afternoon.
Temple is in. They sit in the No. 9 seed in the East Region and they’ll also be in Dayton, where they square off with No. 8 seed North Carolina State.
Villanova checks in at No. 9 seed in the South Region. They get a very familiar name in unranked but No. 8 seed North Carolina.
Bob Grotz has all the details on Villanova. Terry Tooney checks out Temple. And Terry also has the details on La Salle's first trip to The Dance since 1992.
Let the madness begin.
