Going back to an earlier era, the Penn Quakers of 1979 were the last Ivy League team to make it to the Final Four.
The Quakers were largely overlooked heading into the tournament, but pulled off wins against Iowa State, Purdue, North Carolina and Marquette. This impressive run was snuffed out when they lost to Magic Johnson’s Michigan State Spartans in the Final Four.
