Michigan
March 2026

Michigan rolled past Tennessee 95-62 to reach its first Final Four since 2018, with Yaxel Lendeborg scoring 27 points in another dominant display. The Wolverines used their size, balance and a huge first-half run to take control and never let Tennessee recover. Michigan blew the game open with a 21-0 run in the first half and finished with six players scoring at least 11 points. Reuters and AP both noted that Elliot Cadeau had 10 assists, while Tennessee struggled badly from the field and again fell short of a Final Four under Rick Barnes.
