Kwadzo Ahelegbe, Northern Iowa You won't get his name right on the first try, but he's used to that. If you're Purdue, who the 12th-seeded Panthers face in the first round, you won't be able to stay in front of him. He's used to that, too.

Ben Woodside, North Dakota State: The Bison point guard redshirted his freshman year as part of a group of four dedicated to making the NCAA tournament in the school's first eligible year when they would be seniors. He has the bona fides as a clutch performer, hitting the game-winning shot in the Summit League finals and he is the fifth most efficient offensive player in the nation.

Kenny Hasbrouck, Siena: The MAAC player of the year has heart-breaking skills and a heart-warming story. Last year he led the Saints to a first-round upset of fourth-seeded Vanderbilt. His biggest fan is his father, who watches every game from a wheelchair courtside.

Jerome Randle, Cal: Sure, he's a BCS performer, but if you're looking for this year's sharp-shooting legend, Randle is it. The junior connected on 46.8 percent of his 3-point attempts this year, third in the nation.

Eric Maynor, Virginia Commonwealth: Maynor already brought down one college basketball Goliath when he toppled Duke in 2007. Now the scoring point guard, now a senior, is going for the rest of Goliath's family. Up first is UCLA, the same team Dembo torched for 41 points 22 years ago.

Dionte Christmas, Temple: His Temple Owl team couldn't fit more comfortably on his back if he offered drink service while they're there. A strong scorer, Christmas could last two weeks in a wide-open bottom half of the South bracket.

Garrison Carr, American: Before the Eagles knew where they were going to play, Carr was already in shooting range. The school's all-time leading 3-point shooter is just two away from breaking Patriot League record, and maybe your bracket, too.

Artsiom Parakhouski, Radford: With a nickname like the Beast of Belarus, you wouldn't have to do much to get noticed. Fortunately for the Highlanders, he's pretty darn good anyway. There's not much chance of the first-ever men's 16-seed victory here but Parakhouski is a lot more interesting than opposing point guard Ty Lawson's toe.

Jeremiah Dominguez, Portland State: The 5-foot-6 point guard may have to have teammates get things off the top shelf of his locker for him, but he's the one handing out assists on the court. The Vikings are back in the NCAA tournament and a great first-round upset bet, thanks to the Big Sky player of the year Dominguez.

For most of this decade, the Pac-10 was UCLA and the rest. The Bruins have been the Pac-10's representation in the Final Four three of the four times the league has placed a team on the final weekend since 2000, failing to claim the championship each time, but pulling themselves ahead of the West Coast pack as the elite program.
