March Madness 2019: Cincinnati Bearcats look to make most of NCAA date in Columbus vs. Iowa Hawkeyes

Humpday for the University of Cincinnati men's basketball team will be spent in Columbus as Mick Cronin's Bearcats will be in the state capital Wednesday night. The squad has their opening media session late Thursday morning prior to hitting Nationwide Arena for their open practice session.

Cronin hopes he's not alone in Columbus, and the upside of UC getting a No. 7 seed is the short drive north for those that support the Bearcats. From Fifth Third Arena to Nationwide Arena (also home to the Columbus Bluejackets NHL team) is 106.2 miles and about an hour and 40 minutes without delays.
