UNC has been awarded a one-seed in the West Region, joining UConn, Purdue, and Houston in this year’s NCAA Tournament. This announcement comes off of the heels of Hubert Davis’ team suffering a disappointing 75-84 loss to NC State in the ACC Tournament championship game. Now the team will reset and prepare to make a deep run and hopefully make their way to Phoenix later this month.
This will be UNC’s 53rd appearance in the NCAA Tournament. They have played the second-most tournament games in NCAA history (180), and hold the current record for most wins with 131.
