The Friars hope to be making their 17th overall and second consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament.  Last season, the Friars captured the 2014 BIG EAST Tournament title and earned an automatic bid to the Tournament.  The Friars have posted a 14-17 mark all-time in NCAA Tournament play.  Providence is looking to earn its first win in the NCAA Tournament since it defeated UT-Chattanooga, 71-65, on March 21, 1997 to advance to the Elite Eight. The team has made two trips to the Final Four (1973 and 1987), four appearances in the Elite Eight (1965, 1973, 1987and 1997) and five trips to the Sweet Sixteen (1965, 1973, 1974, 1987 and 1997).
