This is what March Madness is all about.

Wofford punched its ticket to the NCAA Tournament earlier this week by beating Western Carolina to win the Southern Conference championship.

After the game, senior Aerris Smith sat down to give an interview with Wofford IMG Sports Network. The end of the interview gets really emotional when Smith tries to fight back tears after revealing he just played his final game because he has to undergo surgery.

It's stories like this one that make you want to root for Cinderella come tournament time.
