In addition to UNC and history, Vermont will also have to overcome travel fatigue

Posted Mar 15, 2012
Vermont is a tired basketball team after having played Wednesday night in Dayton just to earn the right to face top-seeded UNC as the No. 16 seed in Friday’s round at Greensboro Coliseum. But given the alternative of having lost that “First Four” matchup against Lamar, the Catamounts certainly aren’t complaining. “We’re just very happy that we were able to advance,” senior forward Matt Glass said.
