It’s that time of year again for the big dance.
March Madness officially begins on Tuesday, with 68 teams vying to be crowned the 2023 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament champion.
Each year, the tournament delivers its thrills. Last year, St. Peter’s came from the No. 15 seed to reach the Sweet Sixteen, becoming just the third 15 seed to advance that far. It still wound up being a favorite to win the whole tournament, however, with the midwest No. 1 Kansas winning its fourth-ever title.
