Jermaine Wallace hit an off-balance, desperation 3-pointer with less than a second remaining to give Northwestern State, from Louisiana, a 64-63 victory over Iowa in the Atlanta region of the NCAA tournament. The victory by the 14-seeded Demons, who had trailed the entire game, is the biggest upset of the tournament so far.

In other first-round action today, 2nd-seeded Ohio State overcame a tough challenge from Davidson to win, 70-62, in the Minneapolis region; 9th-seeded Bucknell held off Arkansas, 59-55, in the Oakland region; and 8th-seeded Arizona routed Wisconsin, 94-75, in the Minneapolis region.
