I had the pleasure of covering an NCAA Tournament for the first time in 2022, when the 16th-seeded Montana State women’s basketball team played at No. 1-seeded Stanford. Below are the stories I wrote before and after MSU’s first-round game.
- ‘Go in fearless’: Montana State women hope to become second 16 seed to beat Stanford at NCAA tournament
- Stanford overwhelms Montana State women in NCAA tournament first-round game
- Notebook: Montana State women continue ‘year of the Bobcat,’ Tara VanDerveer displays off-court values
I covered another NCAA tourney a year later under much different circumstances. This time, the 14th-seeded MSU men faced third-seeded Kansas State in Greensboro, North Carolina. Below are the stories I published from that trip.
