Many hours after their offseason voyage to Spain started, the Northwestern Wildcats men's basketball team arrived earlier this morning and got right to work. Chris Collins' team, right after checking into its hotel, immediately went sightseeing in the capital of Madrid and even held a practice ahead of its first game tomorrow against CB Estudiantes.

However, the travel day was not without its hiccups, as the Wildcats were aparently detained in a Spanish airport this morning, according to associate director of athletic communications Nick Brilowski.
