- UNC basketball lands in First Four game for NCAA Tournament
The North Carolina Tar Heels are officially dancing. After a stressful 48 hours following a loss to Duke in the ACC Tournament, the Tar Heels found out their fate for the NCAA Tournament.
And they are heading to Dayton.

The Tar Heels got into the field as a 12 seed and will be in the First Four game and will face off against San Diego State on Wednesday night. It's a shocking result to some as the Tar Heels were firmly on the bubble going into Selection Sunday and a lot of mock brackets had the Tar Heels as one of the first four teams out.
But when it was all said and done, they did enough even with a 1-12 Quad 1 record to get into the dance.
Now, they turn their attention to San Diego State, a Mountain West program that is looking to also advance on Wednesday night. The winner will head to Milwaukee on Friday to face off against No. 5 Ole Miss.
