DAYTON, OHIO - MARCH 15: Head coach Tobin Anderson and Demetre Roberts #2 of the Fairleigh Dickinson Knights look on during the second half against the Texas Southern Tigers in the First Four game of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament at University of Dayton Arena on March 15, 2023 in Dayton, Ohio. Fairleigh Dickinson coach Tobin Anderson won’t be back for another run at the NCAA tournament with the Knights., Anderson is set to replace Rick Pitino at Iona.
FDU hung with Florida Atlantic in the second round and even had a lead in the second half before losing to the Owls 78-70 on Sunday. Because it beat Texas Southern in a play-in game three days before beating Purdue, FDU became the first No. 16 seed to win two games in the tournament. Anderson brought three players to FDU with him from Aquinas as the Knights had a remarkable turnaround from the 2021-22 season. FDU won just four games a season ago before finishing 21-16 in 2022-23. The 21 wins were also just three fewer than the school had in the previous three seasons combined.
