03.12.2022 | championrings | BLOG

The best event in sports is finally returning to normal circumstances, as the NCAA Tournament has nearly arrived. After the 2020 event was cancelled amid the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2021 tournament was played in a controlled environment with limited fans, we are gearing up for something that will feel more familiar.

The 2022 Big Dance is scheduled to be played all over the country with fans in areas as the sport caps a wild 2021-22 season that has seen a revolving door atop the rankings. There is no overwhelming favourite to win this season's national championship, and there is no shortage of teams who have flashed the capability to go all the way.
