The NCAA tournament field was revealed Sunday evening and Ohio State found itself as the No. 10 seed in the West Region. The Buckeyes will play 7th-seeded VCU in their opening game of the tournament Thursday in Portland.

VCU finished the season 26-9 and were Atlantic 10 tournament champions. The winner of the matchup between the Buckeyes and Rams will likely see No. 2 seed Arizona.

The top seed in the West Region is Wisconsin. Baylor is the No. 3 seed and North Carolina is the No. 4 seed.

Ohio State was recently bounced from the Big Ten tournament in the quarterfinals following a 76-67 loss to Michigan State. The Buckeyes finished the regular-season with a 23-10 record.
