Top 8 Vote Getters in Each Region Earn First-Round Byes

The voting came down to the wire, but as of noon ET on Monday, June 22, the teams below each earned a first-round bye in TBT 2015. Having already qualified for TBT, the admitted teams continued to get as many votes as possible from June 1 through June 22 in order to secure a first-round bye and ensure that they are only 2 wins from the Super 17 weekend in Chicago and only 6 wins from taking home $1,000,000 on August 2, live on ESPN.

In a world-wide first, the fans will win right alongside their team. The top fans of the winning team are guaranteed to take home 5% of the $1,000,000 purse, to be divvied up among the Top 91 fans as ranked by fans recruited. Those fans who finish in the Top 1000, but outside the Top 91, will win a free, custom, TBT Champions T-shirt just for picking the right squad and doing their part to cheer them on through TBT.

Fans can continue to vote for their favorite team through tip off on Friday July 10th, at which time the voting will close and the Fan Arena positions will be locked.

It is home to the Division II Cal State L.A. basketball and volleyball teams and in 1984 hosted the judo competition for the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

A multi-purpose facility, the Gallagher Center is home to Philadelphia University’s men’s and women’s basketball teams, who play on Herb Magee Court, named after Philly U’s long-time head coach, Herb Magee, who has more than 1,000 career victories and was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2011.

Now 90 years old, Rose Hill Gymnasium has undergone numerous renovations in recent years and currently boasts state-of-the art video boards, new locker rooms and a world class playing surface and was recently named one of the “The Cathedrals of College Basketball.”
