For the second time in as many years, the College Basketball Invitational championship belongs to a team from North Carolina.

One incredible moment from the first game of the 2023 College Basketball Invitational quarterfinals set the tone for a top-to-bottom outstanding day of basketball.

Tennessee Tech knocked down a season-high 12 3-pointers, shooting 46.2% from behind the arc Thursday night, to defeat Monmouth 79-69 in the First Four of the NCAA Tournament at Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana.

The CAA's regular-season co-champions, Drexel and Towson, saw their 2022-2023 seasons come to a close Thursday night in the first round of the WNIT.

Charleston battled back from a nine-point second-half deficit to pull even in the closing minutes, but fifth-seeded San Diego State closed the game on a 10-4 run to outlast the Cougars, 63-57, in the first round of the men's NCAA Basketball Tournament.

Seventh-seeded Monmouth became the first team in league history to win four games in four days and earn the CAA Women’s Basketball title.

Monmouth became the first No. 7 seed since 2011 to reach the finals of the CAA Women’s Basketball Championship presented by Primis, battling past No. 3 Northeastern, 73-60, on Saturday afternoon at SECU Arena.

Try as the rest of the BIG EAST’s women’s basketball programs may, UConn is unshakable.

Now, we are down to two.

After a mainly straightforward Friday, when first-round play kicked off the festivities at the BIG EAST Women’s Basketball Tournament, Saturday went haywire.

It’s March.

The College of Charleston basketball team (17-1 overall, 5-0 in CAA) is off to the best start in Colonial Athletic Association history with a 17-1 record and owns the longest active winning streak in the nation at 16 games.

Two months down, two months now remain in the 2022-23 college basketball season.

Ohio State hasn't played at full-strength much this season, including at the San Diego Invitational. The Buckeyes converged on America's Finest City without Jacy Sheldon, then lost Madison Greene late in their win Tuesday over South Florida.

Eighty-five minutes of March-quality basketball reached a crescendo in the final 72 seconds, when No. 3-ranked Ohio State completed a raucous rally to cap the first day of the San Diego Invitational.
