After hours upon hours of debate, projections, and Seth Davis once again railing against UNC being a one seed (a tradition unlike any other), we can actually start playing the games.
We all know Carolina is the one seed in the Midwest, but what do we know about the other teams in that region? We here at Tar Heel Blog will give you some knowledge about each team competing to get to Minneapolis out of this region. We’ll work our way from the bottom and get to the top, and we start with Carolina’s opponent on Friday.
#16 Iona Gaels (17-15, 12-6 MAAC)
The Gaels were able to win their conference tournament as the top seed, which probably tells you about the strength of the MAAC overall this season.
