More good news from Indy today! Last week the NCAA announced Women's Final Four site selections for several upcoming years, and today they announced site selections for several years of upcoming Men's Final Fours.

It's Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis for 2015!

Below you can read the official release - but I thought I'd highlight one quote in particular:

“Indianapolis will be a fixture for hosting future Final Fours and those behind the bid took nothing for granted,” Slive said. [Mike Slive, Division I Men’s Basketball Committee Chair and Southeastern Conference Commissioner]

Kudos to those behind the bid!

INDIANAPOLIS---A process that Division I Men’s Basketball Committee Chair and
Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive indicated was as grueling and competitive as selecting teams for the men’s basketball championship concluded Wednesday with the announcement of the following host cities for the 2012-16 Men’s Final Fours:

March 31/April 2, 2012: New Orleans, LA Louisiana Superdome
April 6/8, 2013: Atlanta, GA Georgia Dome
April 5/7, 2014: North Texas (Arlington/ Dallas/ Fort Worth) Cowboys Stadium
April 4/6, 2015: Indianapolis, IN Lucas Oil Stadium
April 2/4, 2016: Houston, TX Reliant Stadium

The announcement brings the year-long selection process to a conclusion, returning the Final Four to two sites (New Orleans, Atlanta) after several years, one new site (North Texas) and two cities (Indianapolis, Houston) already slated to host in the next three years....

Indianapolis will host the Men’s Final Four for what will be the seventh time in the city’s history. Market Square Arena was the site of the 1980 Final Four, while the RCA Dome hosted in 1991, ‘97, 2000 and ‘06. Recently-constructed Lucas Oil Stadium, previously picked to host the 2010 Men’s Final Four, will also be the site for the 2015 event. The stadium is also slated to host the 2009 Men’s Regional and 2011 and ‘16 Women’s Final Fours.
