Tuesday Trivia - Thursday Edition

Spent the last few days in lovely Grand Isle in a hotel with a 12" tv, a door that didn't lock from the inside, towels that would grate cheese and no internet so we're a little late with this week's trivia. And since Thursday Thrivia doesn't quite have the same ring to it, we're still going to stick with Tuesdays moving forward.


Last week's question:

Only six times in tournament history had a 15 seed advanced to the second round including Norfolk State and Lehigh this year. The previous four 15 seed winners produced exactly one NBA first round draft pick. Who was it?

Freshman Steve Nash led the 15th seeded West Coast Conference (WCC) Champion Santa Clara Broncos to an upset win over 2nd seeded Arizona in the first round of the 1993 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament. Nash would stay at Santa Clara for all 4 years before getting drafted by the Phoenix Suns with the 15th overall pick in 1996.


This week's question:
