With Sunday's conference tournaments coming to an end, it's time for the Big Dance and the 2014 NCAA men's basketball tournament selection.
New Yorkers who are going stag to this dance can root for the Orange of Syracuse University or the Jaspers of Manhattan College, who beat Iona College March 10 to win the MAAC tournament—or SUNY Albany, which nabbed a play-in spot.
Manhattan is playing Louisville on Tuesday.
The tournament starts Tuesday with a pair of play-in games in Dayton, Ohio. Two more play-ins on Wednesday will set the field of 64. Then it's off to the madness.
