Memphis notches its first N.C.A.A. tournament win in nearly a decade.

As one member of Michigan’s famed Fab Five exhorted the Wolverines from the stands at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, another member coached the team into the round of 32 in the N.C.A.A. tournament.

Jalen Rose flexed, shouted and raised his arms throughout as Michigan coach Juwan Howard, Rose’s former teammate on a squad that reached back-to-back N.C.A.A. championship games in the early 1990s, led the 11th-seeded Wolverines to a 75-63 victory over No. 6 seed Colorado State. The Wolverines (18-14) will face No. 3 Tennessee, which routed No. 14 Longwood, 88-56, in a South Regional round of 32 game on Saturday.
