As March Madness approaches, Sheridan Hoops is providing a small service to our readers whose love of basketball includes college basketball.
Most basketball fans know about the Dukes and Indianas and Georgetowns and Gonzagas. But what about South Dakota State? Belmont? Florida Gulf Coast University?
With that in mind, we have given you Five Facts about each of the smaller schools securing automatic bids to the NCAA Tournament. Some facts are relevant; some are irreverent. But we are pretty sure you will find all of them interesting and informative.
As each school has clinched, we have published a Five Facts file.
Click on a school name to link to the scouting report. Good luck.
