The Shockers have gotten some great play from Ron Baker and Cleanthony Early and he led the team in scoring against Missouri State in the semis and now Fred VanVleet has the chance to lead the team into the tournament undefeated. The team is ranked number two in the nation and this comes after their run to the Final Four last season and they are 33-0 on the year and they come into the game looking to dominate again.
Early comes in leading the team in scoring and rebounding and he is one of the main reasons why the team is undefeated at this point and they have been the story of the year and they should be in line for a number one seed no matter what happens on Sunday.
