NCAA championship events will return to North Carolina

After pulling championship events out of North Carolina while House Bill 2 was in effect, the NCAA is ready to return games to the Tar Heel state going forward. It was announced today that, in addition to Charlotte hosting games in 2018, games would be held in Greensboro in 2020 and Raleigh in 2021.

South Carolina will be hosting games in 2019 in Columbia and 2022 in Greenville. Games in the 2017 tournament that were originally planned for Greensboro were subsequently moved to Greenville because of HB2. Both North Carolina and Duke were sent to South Carolina for their first two games.
