Back in 2022, Saint Peter’s stunned everyone as a #15 seed when they beat John Calipari and Kentucky in the first round. Then, they beat Murray State to advance to the Sweet 16, where they upset Purdue. Ultimately, they lost in the Elite Eight to North Carolina, 69-49, but they had as memorable run as any 15-seed ever.
Coach Shaheen Holloway has moved on to coach at his alma mater, Seton Hall. But, his replacement, Bashir Mason, has them back on the right track and just one game away from the NCAA Tournament.
They’ll take on the winner of Fairfield and Marist Saturday’s championship game.
