Providence Draws 6 Seed in East Region; Will Play Either Dayton or Boise State

The Providence Friars will make their 17th NCAA Tournament appearance on Friday, March 20th in Columbus, Ohio. The Friars were seeded 6th and will take on the winner of an 11 seed play-in game between Dayton and Boise State.

    Beatable teams all the way through to elite 8. BUT every One of these teams is on a par with PC. Great coaching and great playing and making a mark as the best defensive team in the tournament. PC can do this- Heart and Soul. If Dayton wins, crowd will be against PC, prepare for this if this occurs. Go Friars!
