Kansas State's Sweet 16 Run Ignites Passion and Excitement.
TL;DR Summary
Kansas State, predicted to finish last in the Big 12, has made it to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament after beating Kentucky 75-69. The team, which only returned two players and has a first-time head coach, was pieced together around point guard Markquis Nowell, who scored 23 of his 25 points in the second half. Coach Jerome Tang put his faith in Nowell and got his team to believe, too. Now, the team will play in Madison Square Garden, fulfilling a dream for Nowell and Massoud, who are both from New York City.
