Troy has punched its ticket to the big dance.
Troy defeated Texas State 59-53 to win its first Sun Belt Conference Championship, as well as a spot in the NCAA Tournament. It will be the Trojans’ first appearance in March Madness since 2003 and second ever.
On Friday they will face second-seeded Duke, which is a favorite to win the national title this year.
