NCAA FIRST ROUND NOTABLES
• Baylor is 18-1 all-time in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Since dropping its first first-round contest in 2001, the Bears have strung together 18-straight dubs in the opening round of NCAA play.
• BU is hosting the first and second rounds for the 10th time in program history. Baylor hosted from 2013-19 with the streak ending a season ago due to the entire tournament being held in San Antonio because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
• While Baylor is 2-1 all-time against Hawaii, the two teams have never faced off in the NCAA Tournament.
• Hawaii, led by Big West Player of the Year Amy Atwell, is playing in its first NCAA Tournament since 2016.
• Of note, the Ferrell Center and Hawaii's Stan Sheriff Center are as close to being twins as basketball arenas can be. The same company built Hawaii's arena six years after the completion of the Ferrell Center.
