By Ben Everett | Sports Writer

On Sunday, the Baylor men’s basketball team was selected as a No. 3 seed at-large bid for the 2017 NCAA March Madness tournament.

The Bears are slotted in the East Region with Villanova and Duke taking the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds in the region, respectively.

The selection marks the fourth year in a row that Baylor has been in the NCAA tournament, a school record.

Lone senior Ishmail Wainright said he is grateful to be back in the tournament but does not want to lose early like the past two years.
