Texas has never played Colgate in men's basketball before. Here's a look at the small liberal arts school that's turned into a Patriot League powerhouse.
Colgate guard Braeden Smith takes a shot over Lafayette forward Josh Rivera during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game for the Patriot League tournament championship in Hamilton, N.Y., Wednesday, March 8, 2023.AUSTIN — Colgate University was founded in Hamilton, N.Y., in 1819. For the duration of its existence, the selective liberal arts school in Madison County has been regarded as one of the country’s elite academic institutions.
This will mark Colgate’s fourth straight appearance in the NCAA tournament. It’s been both the Patriot League’s regular-season and tournament champion in four of the past five seasons. The only thing missing from his résumé is an NCAA Tournament win. Colgate is 0-5 in the Big Dance, including 0-3 during Langel’s tenure. The 14th-seeded Raiders had No. 3 seed Wisconsin on the ropes last year, leading by two with 10 minutes remaining before falling 67-60.
