Kansas St tops Montana St, 1st March Madness win since 2018 | |
GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) Markquis Nowell had 17 points and 14 assists and No. 3 seed Kansas State held off 14th-seeded Montana State 77-65 Friday night for its first NCAA Tournament win since knocking off Kentucky in 2018 to reach the Elite Eight. Now the two Wildcat programs will meet again in a rematch on Sunday in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Kentucky, the sixth seed, defeated No. 11 Providence 61-53 in the earlier game. Kentucky fans packed the Greensboro Coliseum for the first game, and they are likely to provide a home-court advantage of sorts. MORE | |
