2018 NCAA Tournament: West Region preview

For a third-straight season, the North Carolina Tar Heels are trying to make the Final Four. This year, they find themselves as a two seed in the west regional.

From the first look of things, the region doesn’t appear to look that hard for the Tar Heels. There are a couple of familiar opponents in there, but North Carolina won’t see them until the later rounds.

North Carolina will kick off their title defense on Friday in a comfortable location. The win over Duke in the ACC Tournament proved to be a deciding factor in getting the Tar Heels to Charlotte.
