After practice they will go to an athletic facility lounge on 218th Street in Upper Manhattan and watch on television as their program is selected to the 64-team field of the N.C.A.A. tournament.
Tournament regional play is set to begin Friday, and selection is the right of the Ivy League champion, which for the last three years has been the Columbia Lions.
