Marquette earns No. 4 seed in The Basketball Tournament

After losing in the championship game of The Basketball Tournament in 2019, the Marquette alumni squad is back and will be the No. 4 seed in this year’s contest.

All games in the tournament are to be held at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, where the teams will be kept in quarantine from July 4 to July 14.

There are 24 teams in the entire bracket. The tournament is single-elimination with a $1 million cash prize for the winning team. This year’s first seed is the team Marquette lost to in the championship last year, Carmen’s Crew, made up of alumni from Ohio State.
