“God works in mysterious ways.”

Providence star forward Bryce Hopkins was sitting on the edge of his seat waiting for his team’s NCAA Tournament draw.

He saw the regions checked off one by one, the East remaining with neither the Friars nor Kentucky Wildcats on the board yet. Many of the mock brackets had his current and former teams facing off in the No. 6 vs. No. 11 game, and there it sat, available for the taking.
