It’s that time of year again, March Madness is here. No team wants to be the one that goes down as one of the first to be upset. Arizona must avoid the upset against Akron in order to move on to the Round of 32. The Akron Zips are coached by John Groce and led on the court by Nick Johnson. Johnson was the MAC Player of the Year as well as DPOY. Can Arizona’s Caleb Love, Jaden Bradley, KJ Lewis, Carter Bryant, Henri Veesaar, and Tobe Awaka overcome the pressure of March Madness and execute their game at a high level and send Akron packing? Or will Tommy Lloyd’s bunch be an early exit?
