NCAA will not release 2020 March Madness bracket

The NCAA determined it will not release a March Madness bracket for the 2020 men’s and women’s basketball tournaments that were canceled because of the coronavirus.

“The important work of the basketball committees is to set up competitively-balanced brackets to determine national champions,” NCAA vice president of basketball Dan Gavitt said in a statement Sunday. “I don’t believe it’s responsible or fair to do that with incomplete seasons — especially for tournaments that unfortunately won’t be played. Therefore there will not be any NCAA Division I men’s and women’s basketball championship selection shows or tournament brackets released this year.”
