Memphis, March 10, 2009 — With only weeks to go before the 2009 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball South Regional tips off in Memphis, the NCAA is making a limited number of tickets available to the general public. The 2009 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball South Regional will be held at FedExForum on March 27 and 29.
The event, which was announced as a sell-out in October before additional tickets were made available, will be hosted by the University of Memphis and feature four teams and three games in two days of competition. Two games will be played on Friday, March 27, and the winners of those two contests will advance to the Elite Eight round to be played on Sunday, March 29.
For those fans unsuccessful in acquiring tickets, the NCAA will conduct an open practice day, showcasing all four teams at FedExForum on Thursday, March 26, 2009. There is no cost to attend the open practice day.
