Cinderella dances into Elite Eight

Feeling right at home, George Mason used a shutdown defense to take the suspense out of its mid-major matchup with Wichita State.
Now the 11th-seeded Patriots are one victory from the Final Four.

Playing a short drive from George Mason's campus, Folarin Campbell scored 16 points and the Patriots stifled seventh-seeded Wichita State's bigger lineup to win 63-55 Friday night, moving into the NCAA tournament's round of eight for the first time.

Think they belong now?

George Mason advances to meet top-seeded Connecticut or fifth-seeded Washington in Sunday's Washington Regional final. Those teams played in Friday night's second game.
