Temple and Villanova too. But they've done that in the past two decades so that's not as exciting as the Explorers getting a bid.
La Salle will get the national spotlight as well with one of the play-in games on Wednesday night.
Let's go Philly.
From CSN:
Villanova (20-13), a No. 9 seed, has been placed in the South region and
will face 8-seed North Carolina (24-10) on Friday in Kansas City, Mo.
Temple (23-9), also a 9-seed, has been placed in the East region and will face NC State (24-10) on Friday in Dayton, Ohio.
La
Salle (21-9), which had to sweat out Selection Sunday, will face Boise
State (21-10) on Wednesday at 9:10 p.m. in Dayton in one of the First
Four games between 13-seeds. It will be the Explorers' first NCAA
tournament appearance since 1992.
