The Iona Gaels men's basketball team is heading to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2003.
The team will head to Denver, Colorado, to face off against Iowa State Thursday.
"It's a blessing because this doesn't come around for our school that often and hopefully we can go pretty far," says student Vinnie Capriola.
With the school buzzing with excitement, the bookstore on campus already has NCAA tournament gear for sale.
Tip-off for the game Thursday is at 2 p.m.
