BIRMINGHAM — When Auburn went to Greenville, S.C., as the No. 5 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament last season, it was Dylan Cardwell’s first-ever trip to the Big Dance.
“Being here last year,” Cardwell said, “I was very starstruck about March Madness because I grew up watching it as a kid.”

Leading scorer Johni Broome has also played in March, facing off against West Virginia in 2020’s tournament while at Morehead State, and his first tournament experience was quite similar to Cardwell's.
“I feel like once you play in it, it’s going to come natural,” Broome said. “I feel like we’re going to be ready to play. The lights ain’t going to be too bright for us.”
