Dallas 2014: Let the Big Dance Begin!
Wichita State is the only Division I team to enter the NCAA tournament unbeaten (one of many to do so), including the win in The Valley Championship in St. Louis last Sunday (was on CBS). Now the Shockers will get top seed in the Indianapolis region, and will play this weekend at Scottrade Center (home of the MVC tournament) against a play-in winner.
Defending national champions Louisville is also in the tournament, but as a very disappointing number 4 seed, also in the Indianapolis region.
With that in mind...the first and second round matchups:
NEW YORK Region
(1) Virginia v (16) Coastal Carolina
(8) Memphis v (9) George Washington
(5) Cincinnati v (12) Harvard
(4) Michigan State v (13) Delaware
