Selection Sunday

Selection Sunday is the day when college basketball's NCAA Tournament field is announced. After the regular season and conference tournaments, a committee reviews teams' performances to determine which will compete in the tournament. They also assign teams to specific regions and seedings based on their rankings and achievements. This event is highly anticipated because it reveals the matchups and which teams will have a shot at competing for the national championship. Fans, coaches, and players often view it as a milestone, marking the beginning of the tournament’s excitement and the journey toward crowning the best team in college basketball.
