Michigan advanced to the national championship game in 2018, earned an Elite Eight bid in 2021 and made three Sweet 16 appearances (2017, 2019, 2022). Virginia Tech has made five NCAA Tournament appearances since 2017, including a regional semifinal run in 2019 when the team won a school-record 26 games.

The Musketeers also posted an Elite Eight finish in 2017.
 
Approaching its seventh season, the Fort Myers Tip-Off has become one of the top early season events in the country and a fixture on the Southwest Florida sports calendar. In its first six years, the Tournament has hosted perennial championship contenders and some of college basketball’s biggest brands, including Kansas, Gonzaga, Ohio State, Marquette, Florida, Wisconsin, Virginia and West Virginia, among others.
