The NCAA Tournament began with two first round games in Dayton Ohio on Thursday night. Teams battled for spots in the next round as fans filled arenas and players chased an early tournament momentum.
Georgia Tech coach Brian Gregory announced Glen Rice Jr has been kicked off the team after Rice and another person were charged in a shooting outside an Atlanta nightclub. Rice, a graduate student manager, will stay enrolled through spring semester. The incident followed prior suspensions and benching last season.
The Peach Belt Conference issued an official reprimand to Augusta State head men's basketball coach Darren Dip Metress for unsportsmanlike conduct in the semifinals loss to Montevallo. No suspension was given.
South Carolina athletic director Eric Hyman dismissed Darrin Horn after four seasons marked by declining wins culminating in a 10-21 overall record and 2-14 in the SEC. Despite off court improvements, empty seats and urgency to reach a top 25 standard drove the decision as Horn received severance due.
The author argues Arizona deserved inclusion over N C State despite a weaker overall schedule. Arizona posted nine wins against top 100 RPI teams, five losses by four points or less, and no defeat by more than one point, suggesting a stronger near-miss case in the field.
NC State faced eight Top 25 teams and failed to win any. The narrative notes the tough schedule, yet highlights no signature wins and questions whether the Wolfpack earned a tournament berth. The passage closes with an uncertain, bold remark about facing Cam.
The author argues West Virginia should remain home despite a 19 win season and 9 9 Big East finish after a Big East tournament loss. Washington also feels snubbed with a 21 10 record and 14 4 Pac 12 title though lacking wins over tourney teams. The Pac 12 champion missing the NIT is noted as a precedent. See Jeremy, 28.
South Aiken pitcher and slugger Taylor Widener dominated North Augusta at Riverview Park. The USC commitment struck out 11 in a complete game and drove in four runs as Widener shined both on the mound and at the plate, lifting South Aiken to the victory.
