Tonight the NCAA postseason truly kicks off for the Frogs. They earned the highest national seed in program history, but that hasn’t made their road to the postseason any easier. They have still ended up with one of the toughest regionals in the country, but they can do themselves a huge favor by getting into the winner’s bracket tonight. To do so they’ll have to defeat the No. 4 seed Central Connecticut State Blue Devils.
The CCSU Blue Devils finished the year 36-20 overall and 21-7 in the Northeastern Conference. They finished one game behind Bryant in the Northeastern Conference regular season standings, but they went 3-0 in the conference tournament to claim the championship and a postseason birth.
