The first day of 2022 March Madness has certainly delivered!
Headed into Thursday evening, the biggest upset of the day was No. 5 Iowa falling to No. 12 Richmond after some refereeing controversy, but the day belonged the the No. 15 Saint Peter’s Peacocks. In the most stunning upset of the tournament so far, No. 15 Saint Peter’s dethroned No. 2 Kentucky 85-79 after the game went to overtime.
The Peacocks were leading the Wildcats in the final few minutes of the second half, but Kentucky was able to force overtime. Unfortunately for the Wildcats, however, the Peacocks continued to dominate in the extra frame to secure the victory.
