Kicking things off at UCLA, home of the No. 1-seeded Bruins, is a battle between No. 8 Georgia Tech and No. 9 Richmond.
The Yellow Jackets’ season has been nothing short of historic. The squad won its first 15 games of the season, beating ranked opponents Oregon, North Carolina, and Nebraska, for their best start in program history. The remainder of the season wasn’t perfect, as they finished 9-9 in the ACC, but it was good enough for the Yellow Jackets’ first NCAA Tournament selection since 2022.
Meanwhile, the Spiders have a chip on their shoulder heading into the postseason. Richmond claimed the A-10 regular season title, not losing a conference game in the regular season, before being upset by Saint Joseph’s in the A-10 tournament semifinals.
Georgia Tech vs. Richmond will be a matchup of teams trying to prove themselves. For the Yellow Jackets, it’s finishing what they started. And for the Spiders, it’s winning their first March Madness game in program history. It all goes down on Friday, March 21, from Los Angeles.
