And yes, 102-year-old Sister Jean will be by their side.

Hunter Cattoor scored a career-high 31 points in the title-game victory, but he\u2019ll be hard-pressed to repeat that feat against Texas\u2019 stifling defense under Chris Beard, who has the Longhorns in the NCAAs in his first season since leaving Texas Tech for his alma mater.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/20220318loyola.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Drew Valentine\" class=\"wp-image-21569359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/20220318loyola.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/20220318loyola.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/20220318loyola.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Denzel Valentine<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_13_Chattanooga_vs_No_4_Illinois_6_50_pm_TNT\"><\/span>No. 13 Chattanooga vs. No. 4 Illinois: 6:50 p.m., TNT<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Illini are looking for redemption after failing to advance past the first weekend last year as a No. 1 seed.
