Iowa basketball will continue to dance in this year’s NCAA Tournament.

The Hawkeyes picked up a 67-61 win over Clemson on Friday night, the first NCAA Tournament victory for the program in five years. Now the challenge gets even harder, as the top-seeded Florida Gators await the Hawkeyes in the Round of 32.

The Gators easily handled business in their first-round matchup against Prairie View A&M, winning 114-55. The defending National Champions won the SEC in the regular season and feature one of the best front courts in the country. It’s a tough matchup, but anything can happen in March.
