North Carolina and Creighton have added a bit of unpredictability to the Greensboro Region. The Tar Heels and Bluejays have reached the Sweet 16 by beating higher-seeded teams on the road. They don't see any reason they can't keep it going now.
“I think a lot of programs like Creighton don’t get the as much screen-time and notice as they normally do with other programs just coming into the tournament,” Bluejays sophomore Emma Ronsiek said. “I wouldn’t necessarily say this is an upset for us, but everyone else would say that it’s an upset. And it’s just super cool even thinking about that.”this year. Wearing that crown and being the hunted hasn’t been a problem for South Carolina.“Just being No.
The Gamecocks have wins against six teams still in the field — including 1-seeds Stanford and North Carolina State, and 2-seed Connecticut — though they haven’t played the other three teams in the Greensboro Region.The Cyclones are ranked second nationally in both 3-point percentage and made 3s per game , while the Bluejays are No. 11 in percentage and No. 3 in made 3s . And both are in the top 10 in attempts.
The Cyclones haven’t been here since 2010, falling in the opening weekend nine times since. And Iowa State hasn’t reached a regional final since 2009. “I think I’ve thanked them 50 times for getting me here,” said the 64-year-old Fennelly, now in his 27th season with Iowa State. “This like the coolest thing ever. I’m at a point in my career where you’re not going to do this many more times, if ever, and I just told them they have to enjoy this.North Carolina certainly knows its surroundings.
