The selections for the 2024 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament were announced Sunday, with the University Huskies earning the No. 1 overall seed in the Big Dance.
The Huskies are the defending national champions. The Huskies defeated San Diego State 76-59 thanks to dynamite performances from Adama Sanogo and Tristen Newton. Sanogo turned pro after the tournament, but Newton returned and leads the team with 15.2 points per game.
UW is seeking to become the first team to win back-to-back national championships since the University of Florida did it in 2006 and 2007.
The first four games will tip off on March 16th and 17th. The Round of 64 is March 21-22, the Round of 32 is March 23-24, the Sweet 16 is March 28-29, the Elite Eight is March 30-31, and the Final Four is April 6. The national championship game will be held on April 8th.
The winner of the East region will play the winner of the West region, and the winner of the South region will play the winner of the Midwest region in the Final Four.
