Monday May 3rd, 2021 8:00am (Photo Notre Dame Athletics) Conference tournaments take center stage this week as eight leagues will hand out AQs and a trip to May Madness. The NCAA Tournament will also welcome eight at-large selections. The ACC will grab five of the eight at-large bids. That leaves three open spots for teams that fail to capture their league crown. It’s as easy as 8-8-5-3. Runners-up with resumes from the Patriot, Big East and Big Ten are likely to receive those three last bids. All the intrigue makes this week the most intense of the season, the moment of truth. Win and advance, lose and go home. ....
