2019 NCAA Tournament Day 1 Recap: Arizona State, North Dakota State Advance After First Four Victories [VIDEO]

Arizona State gets first tournament win in over a decade

Arizona State is advancing past the first round of the NCAA Tournament after eliminating St. John’s 74-65 in the First Four on Wednesday night in Dayton, Ohio. The Sun Devils never trailed and held off a late run by St. John’s to finally secure their first NCAA Tournament win as a program since 2009.

North Dakota State defeats North Central

On another side of the bracket, North Dakota State advanced past North Central after defeating them 78-74 in a postseason thriller. NC Central coach LeVelle Moton’s wish was granted. He said earlier this week his team were hoping to not have to play No. 1 overall seed Duke, and some wishes are answered. No. 16 seed Eagles fell just short of another matchup against the Blue Devils on Wednesday night.

It was a close game throughout, each team matching the other’s energy.
