Meet George Mason

After a disappointing early exit in the Big East Tournament, East Region No. 5 seed Notre Dame looks to rebound in its NCAA Tournament first round matchup against No. 12 George Mason. If the Irish can win this first game, they will face the winner of No. 4 Washington State and No. 13 Winthrop.

And if the Irish advance to the Sweet 16, they potentially face overall No. 1 North Carolina in Charlotte.
