Michigan was the last Big Ten team in the NCAA Tournament, and now, they're out.
Tuesday night (March 30), and the Wolverines fell to UCLA in a 51-49 loss in the East Regional final at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
UCLA, who defeated Michigan State earlier in the tournament, will advance to the Final Four.
“It's very disappointing for our guys, working extremely hard this year, coming down to one possession,” Michigan coach Juwan Howard said in a press conference. “And that's how it goes sometimes. The game of basketball, there's one or two possessions that could really either help you or hurt you.
"And for us, you know, we came up short. It's gonna be tough to sleep tonight.”
