The Bryant Bulldogs (23-11), champions of the America East Conference, are set to face the Michigan State Spartans (27-6) in the first round of the 2025 NCAA Tournament on Friday, March 21, at Rocket Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.
Under the leadership of coach Tom Izzo, the Spartans enter the tournament as a No. 2 seed. They clinched the Big Ten regular-season championship but fell to Wisconsin in the conference semifinals, ending an eight-game winning streak.
The Bulldogs, coached by Phil Martelli Jr., secured their NCAA Tournament berth by winning the America East Conference championship, defeating Maine 79-59 in the title game. Bryant’s strength is their collective height. They are the sixth-tallest team nationally with every player in their rotation 6-foot-5 or taller.
The winner of this game earns the right to play the winner of the New Mexico vs. Marquette game.
