No. 4-seed Maryland men’s basketball is back in the dance with arguably its best shot for a deep run in years. The road to that starts Friday in Seattle against No. 13-seed Grand Canyon.
Most of the Terps roster will get its first taste of March Madness basketball against the Antelopes, who are back in the tournament after making a name for themselves in last season’s. The programs have never played each other.
Maryland’s first-round matchup is set to tip off at 4:35 p.m. EST and will air on TBS.
Grand Canyon Antelopes (26-7, 13-3 Western Athletic)
