Part of the beauty of March basketball is that as the stage gets bigger, the spotlight shrinks.
The biggest story coming out of the East Region was St. Peter’s shocking upset as the #15. They defeated the #2 seed Kentucky Wildcats on the first Thursday, providing this tournament’s biggest headline by going into overtime with Coach Calipari’s uber talented squad and dropping them 85-79.
Two days later, they were taking on the other school from Kentucky, Murray St., and went ahead and eliminated them, too, 70-60.
They’ll look to make their upset aggression travel north to the state of Indiana, where DraftKings has them as 12.
