March Madness Prelude – The NCAA Conference Tournaments

March is upon us and with it comes March Madness. For most folks, March Madness is synonymous with the NCAA Tournament, but little do they know that Conference Tournaments actually kick this madness off. Thirty-two NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Conferences will crown champions over this next two week stretch. Last year we saw one of the great runs in NCAA tournament history when Saint Peter’s made it to the Elite Eight. How did Saint Peter’s get there? Saint Peter’s entered the NCAA tournament by winning their conference tournament. Who will be this year’s Saint Peter’s? We’ll have our Cinderella run for sure again because this year’s college basketball landscape has proved that there is no heavy favorite. Buckle up, this year’s NCAA Tournament will be one of the wildest rides in recent memory.
