The NCAA Tournament is advancing through the first weekend and Sweet 16 matchups are being finalized. We’ve had some big upsets along the way, and we already have our first double digit seed into the second weekend of the tournament. No. 11 Syracuse held off No. 3 West Virginia 75-72 and will face No. 2 Houston in the Sweet 16. We’re guaranteed at least one more double digit when No. 11 UCLA faces No. 14 Abilene Christian on Monday.
