    This Would Be Northwestern's First Ever Trip To The NCAA Tourney

    Northwestern has never earned a trip to the NCAA Tournament, but that could finally change.

    The Wildcats are 18-5, 7-3 in the Big 10, although they are coming off Wednesday's 80-59 loss at No. 23 Purdue, snapping their six-game conference win streak.

    Maybe the Wildcats get a pass because leading scorer Scottie Lindsey (15.4 ppg.) was ill and missed that game.

    Northwestern is among five Division I teams that have fielded a program since the first NCAA tournament in 1939 to never appear in the Big Dance. The others are Army, the Citadel, St. Francis (N.Y.) and William & Mary.
