Tulane lost by a point in the championship game of the Metro Conference tournament, but received an at-large bid to the 1992 NCAA tournament  - the first tournament appearance in program history. The Green Wave defeated St. John's[1] in the opening round before losing to Oklahoma State in the round of 32[2]  - a game in which the Cowboys shot an astronomical 80% from the field.
