"Auburn Walk-On and Iowa Face Off in NCAA Tournament Showdown"
Lior Berman, a senior shooting guard for Auburn and a walk-on player, has captured the hearts of his hometown of Birmingham as he prepares to play in the NCAA Tournament. Despite not being on scholarship, Berman has worked hard and contributed real minutes to Auburn's rotation, and is shooting over 40% from 3-point range. He has paid his own way for the last two years due to Auburn's scholarship reductions, but has still managed to become a fan favorite and hometown celebrity. Berman's journey from walking on at Auburn to playing in the NCAA Tournament is one of the great stories of March Madness.
