Wednesday night will see a pair of No. 11 seeds face off in a First Four matchup to determine whether they can play in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Syracuse vs. Arizona State First Four preview

The Arizona State Sun Devils will face the Syracuse Orange in Dayton, Ohio. This is Arizona State’s second NCAA bid since 2009. Tra Holder, Shanon Evans, Remy Martin and Kodi Justice will be among the top Sun Devils stars to watch.

The last time Syracuse made the NCAA Tournament, it reached the Final Four. The Orange — led by head coach Jim Boeheim — have benefited from their zone defense this season, although their shooting is not exactly on point.

Syracuse ranks in the bottom 50 in shooting this year.
