Get to know 2019's Cinderella: The University of Oregon

Oregon has shocked the college basketball world with an improbable run into the NCAA Tournament's Sweet 16 as a 12 seed. This team has come out of nowhere and because of their unknown underdog status, America may not be familiar with this school. Oregon has not won a tournament game since 2017 and has reached the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2017. Here are some facts to know about this year's scrappy tournament darling:
Name: University of Oregon
Location: Eugene, Oregon
Mascot: Ducks
Established: 1876
Home Arena: Knight Arena (12,364)
Head Coach: Dana Altman
Famous Alumni: Phil Knight
Did You Know?: The mascot for the school was originally the Webfoots.
Oregon takes on Virginia in the Sweet 16 and looks to continue their improbable run and continue to capture the hearts and minds of the nation. However, no 12 seed has ever defeated a 1 seed and only one 12 seed has reached the Elite 8, Missouri in 2002. Oregon has a chance to cement themselves as an all time underdog story with a win over Virginia in a true David vs. Goliath matchup.

The Whack-12. Conference of Champions...if you're into pole-vaulting and watching rich kids swim laps in a big-arse pool

Or when a team does win it all, they later have to have those titles vacated (lol USC)

For a small school they have a great Track complex. Some guy named Pre ran there
