Late on Sunday night, the National Invitation Tournament (NIT) announced its field for 2024, and the Boston College Eagles man’s basketball team found themselves invited to play against Providence College on Tuesday night.
BC made an unexpected run to the ACC Tournament quarterfinals last week, knocking off Clemson and taking Virginia to overtime, two teams that are competing in March Madness later this month. Although their performance was not nearly good enough to earn a bid to the big dance (like NC State managed to pull off), the Eagles performed well enough to earn a postseason appearance in the tournament for teams just below the full NCAA bracket.
