DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - Duke has its opponent for the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Allen Smith scored 14 points Tuesday night to lead Arkansas-Pine Bluff to a 61-44 victory over Winthrop in the NCAA tournament's opening game.
The Golden Lions (18-15) will play Duke - the No. 1 seed in the West - on Friday in Jacksonville, Fla., a stunning development given how their season started. Arkansas-Pine Bluff lost its first 11 games - all on the road - before rallying to earn the Southwestern Athletic Conference title and its first NCAA tournament berth.
