2025 Men's NCAA Tournament coverage

March 22, 2025 Final 2025 Division III men's basketball NCAA Tournament bracket The Trinity Bantams clamored and clucked their way to the top of Division III. Here's how the 2025 bracket shook out.

March 22, 2025 Trinity's goal: National championship Bantams coach James Cosgrove wanted his players to tone it down, but the Trinity players were set on setting their goal for the season as winning a national championship. They were right, he was wrong. Ryan Scott has more.

March 22, 2025 Vetter carries Trinity to title Jarrel Okorougo carried Trinity (Conn.) early, and Henry Vetter carried them late, as he scored all 14 of his points in the second half, including the game-winner, to get the Bantams past NYU for the 2025 Division III men's basketball national title.

March 20, 2025 NYU continues run into title game Hampton Sanders had a career night from beyond the arc and NYU overcame the ejection of starter Zay Freeney as the top-ranked Violets roared into the national title game, defeating UAA rival WashU.

March 20, 2025 Trinity wears Wesleyan down The NESCAC representative in the Division III men’s basketball national championship game will be wearing blue and yellow, after Trinity held off a late Wesleyan run to defeat its conference foe and archrival 73-69 in Thursday’s first national semifinal.

March 19, 2025 Trinity: Back and better Just getting to the Final Four is a challenge, let alone doing it two years in a row. The Trinity Bantams have eight guys back who played in last year's national semifinals, and they are hungrier this time around. Joe Sager has more in a Road to Fort Wayne feature.

March 18, 2025 For Regans, the Final Four is a family affair It's Wesleyan's first trip to the Division III men's basketball Final Four. But it's not the first trip for the Regan family. Wesleyan All-Region player Shane Regan's dad was once a D-III player in the Final Four as well. Joe Sager has more in a Road to Fort Wayne feature.

March 18, 2025 Almost all the way back “I thought my season was going to be over when I got sick,” WashU point guard Yogi Oliff said. And it was almost over when he broke his wrist, so to get mono on top of it was a huge setback. Only now is he pretty close to 100 percent. Brian Lester has more in a Road to Fort Wayne feature.

March 18, 2025 Unselfish and together Last year's NYU men's basketball team centered on one person, but this year's Violets have a new look and new philosophy. Ryan Scott has more in a Road to Fort Wayne feature.

March 17, 2025 Hoopsville: Final Fours And then there were four. In what seems like the blink of an eye, four rounds are done and four men's and four women's teams are left to battle for two national championships. On Monday's Hoopsville, we take a look back at the Sectionals weekend and ahead to the final fours. Catch up On Demand or podcast - right here!

March 15, 2025 Final Four: It's all UAA, NESCAC In the first year of the NCAA Power Index, the power conferences certainly got through, as it will be Wesleyan and Trinity (Conn.) of the NESCAC and NYU and Wash U of the UAA who make the trip to Fort Wayne for the Division III national semifinals.

March 14, 2025 Catholic, La Crosse get big comebacks Catholic came from 19 points down in the second half, while UW-La Crosse rallied from 16 points down and the Cardinals and Eagles kept their teams in the NCAA Tournament for another night, as Catholic defeated Roanoke in overtime and UW-La Crosse knocked off Illinois Wesleyan. Meanwhile, WashU got the better of Wisconsin Lutheran again in the rematch, and the No. 1 seeds all advanced, handily.

March 13, 2025 Hoopsville: Hoops Hopes The Sectionals are here. There will be some great hoops to watch this weekend. What challenges are ahead for teams to clinch their trips to Ft. Wayne and Salem? We talk about their hopes ahead on Thursday's Hoopsville, LIVE, at 7:00 PM ET - right here!

March 13, 2025 At NYU, it's two teams, but one goal The NYU men's basketball and women's basketball teams do all of their conference travel together in the UAA, flying halfway across the country at times for games. Even though they're not both allowed to host at the same time, that bond doesn't wane. Joe Sager has more.

March 11, 2025 Wash U vs. WLC: The rematch Last year, Washington U. and Wisconsin Lutheran battled to overtime in an epic first-round NCAA Tournament game. This year, the teams with too many ties to enumerate will face off once again, in the Sweet 16. Ryan Scott has more.

March 10, 2025 Hoopsville: Suddenly Sixteen We know it's going to happen every year, but the suddenness of getting down to 16 teams in both NCAA Tournaments is still sudden. And this past weekend also had some stunning results. Tune in to a matinee edition of Hoopsville as we talk to several teams still making headlines. Tune in LIVE at 11:30 AM ET - right here!

March 8, 2025 Round 2: UWP, R-MC go down It wasn't until the second-to-last game of Saturday, after 10 p.m. ET, that a top seed went down, and that happened when Wisconsin Lutheran tied it with 0.5 left in regulation hung on in overtime at UW-Platteville. In addition, UMW and WNE continued their runs into the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament, as they defeated hosts Ramapo and Montclair State, and Catholic knocked out Randolph-Macon.

March 7, 2025 Round 1 men: Three 11's, a 12, a 13 and a 15 The first D-III men's basketball NCAA Tournament in decades to have seedings looked almost exactly like its big-money counterpart, as a No. 15 and a No. 13 seed advanced, along with two 12's and three of the No. 11 seeds. All this came in a nine-hour whirlwind of basketball that left top seeds intact, but lots of interesting things up and down the entire Field of 64.

March 6, 2025 Hoopsville: Tourney Tip-Off It's one of the best weekends of the season! The DIII Men's &Women's Tournaments are ready to tip-off. And after about 36-hours, each bracket will be cut in half. What surprises await?

March 6, 2025 Men's NCAA Tournament preview We enter the 2025 Division III men's basketball NCAA Tournament with perhaps less confidence than ever before. Our Top 25 has first place votes split almost evenly among UW-Platteville, NYU, and Wesleyan and there were all sorts of upsets in conference tournaments. But Ryan Scott makes sense of it in his annual NCAA Tournament preview.

March 4, 2025 Eagles still in flight It could have gone very wrong. But it didn’t. Now the sky’s the limit for Mary Washington. The sub-.500 Eagles, toughened up by a difficult schedule, put it together and played their way into the NCAA Tournament. Ryan Scott has more.

March 3, 2025 Men's NCAA Tournament bracket is out! Here's how the Field of 64 is divvied out across the country, including teams flying into Boston and northern New Jersey!
