The 52nd annual edition of the tournament began on March 15, 1990, and ended with the championship game on April 2 at the McNichols Sports Arena in Denver, Colorado. A total of 63 games were played. UNLV won the national title with a 103–73 victory in the final game over Duke. In doing so, UNLV set the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament record for largest margin of victory in a championship game. UNLV's championship win marked the last time a school from a non-power conference had won the tournament until UConn from the American Conference in 2014. Anderson Hunt of UNLV was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player. This tournament is also remembered for an emotional run by the Loyola Marymount Lions (LMU) in the West region. In the quarterfinals of the West Coast Conference tournament against the Portland Pilots, Lions star forward Hank Gathers collapsed and died due to a heart condition.Nehus Saxon Lisa March 6, 1990 Winning and losing: Players, friends believed Gathers was invincible https://books.google.com/books?id=ryJKAAAAIBAJ&dq=hank+gathers+AND+heart+-AP&pg=PA9 January 16, 2025 The Vindicator 11 The WCC tournament was immediately suspended and LMU, the regular-season champion, was given the conference's automatic bid to the tournament. The team defeated New Mexico State, then laid a 34-point thrashing on defending national champion Michigan, and defeated Alabama in the Sweet Sixteen (the only game in which LMU did not score 100 or more points in the tournament) before running into eventual champion UNLV in the regional final. Gathers' childhood friend, Bo Kimble, the team's undisputed floor leader in the wake of the tragedy, paid tribute to his friend by attempting his first free throw in each game left-handed despite being right-handed (Gathers was right-handed, but struggled so much with free throws that he tried shooting them left-handed for a time.) March 19, 1990 This Bo knows heartache, happiness https://books.google.com/books?id=Mm4iAAAAIBAJ&dq=bo+kimble+AND+free+throw+shooting&pg=PA25 January 16, 2025 The Argus-Press Kimble made all of his left-handed attempts in the tournament. The tournament employed a new timing system borrowed from FIBA & the NBA: when the game was played in an NBA arena, the final minute of the period is measured in tenths-seconds, rather than whole seconds as in previous years.
