Providence snapped the longest winning streak in college basketball by beating South Dakota State in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Bynum released the ball before contact, but Wilson appeared to hit the shooter’s arm and bump him before he landed. I would have liked it to be different, but …” “It was a tough call,” Henderson said. The Friars were up three in the final minute when Bynum let loose a 3-pointer with 3 seconds left on the shot clock. The Friars were only a two-point favorite, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. “You know, we hear the noise that everybody says, but we can’t let that rattle us,” Durham said.

The Jackrabbits put the nation's longest winning streak on the line against the Friars in the first round of the NCAA Tournament Thursday afternoon.

Douglas Wilson notched a double-double with 21 points and 11 rebounds and was named Summit League Tournament MVP. Each of the other four starters were also in double figures.
