After two straight WAC title game losses under former Phoenix Suns star Dan Majerle, the ‘Lopes reached their first-ever NCAA Tournament in Bryce Drew’s first season. GCU’s first March challenge will come in the form of a Hawkeye team that’s aiming to win its first NCAA game for the fourth straight time. Of course, expectations are higher for this second-seeded Iowa team than they were for the seventh-seeded ones of 2015 and 2016 and 2019’s 10th-seeded outfit.
