March Madness has officially arrived.

No. 12-seed High Point upset No. 5-seed Wisconsin 83-82 in the first round of the NCAA Men's Tournament at Moda Center on Tuesday. 

High Point guard Chase Johnston scored the game-winning basket with 11 seconds on a breakaway layup after Wisconsin guard Nick Boyd missed a layup that would have put the Badgers up 84-81. High Point guard Rob Martin hauled in the rebound and fired downcourt to a streaking Johnston.

Martin, who assisted on the game-winning layup, led the Panthers in scoring with 23 points while also dishing 10 assists. Owen Aquino (11 points), Terry Anderson (15 points) and Cam'Ron Fletcher (14 points) were the other players who scored in double-figures for High Point.
