This marks the the fifth time the MW Conference and Pepsi Center have hosted a March Madness event. They previously worked together during the first and seconds rounds of the men's tournament in 2004, 2008, 2011 and 2016. In addition, they hosted the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament Final Four in 2012.
Sure, it's still four years out. But for those of you who like to plan ahead, mark it down: Denver will go mad on March 25 and 27, 2021.
