Good morning, New York/New Jersey-area sports fans! Let's have a look at what's happening in the world of sports this morning.
↵NCAA TOURNAMENT: Duke will not win back-to-back national championships after being blown out by Arizona Thursday night in the Sweet 16. UConn, Butler and Florida also remained alive. The other Big East Conference team still alive in the tournament, Marquette, is in action tonight.
↵BASEBALL: Opening Day is rapidly approaching, and both New York teams are finalizing their rosters. The New York Yankees are close to making some decisions about their pitching staff, and waiting to find out if center fielder Curtis Granderson will be healthy enough to open the season. The New York Mets are still not sure if right fielder Carlos Beltran will be available when the season starts.
↵NHL: The New York Rangers lost to Ottawa, 2-1, in a shootout Thursday night, but managed to stretch their points streak to six games.
