DENVER — Vladislav Goldin and Michigan proved a bit too much for UC San Diego when the Russian center scored 14 points and the fifth-seeded Wolverines overcame Tyler McGhie's 25 points to escape with a 68-65 win in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. McGhie's 3-point attempt at the buzzer with 7-footer Danny Wolf in his face hit the back iron. Michigan advanced to face fourth-seeded Texas A&M in the South Region. McGhie's bucket with 2:29 left gave the 12th-seeded Tritons their only lead at 65-63. Goldin hit two free throws with 19.3 seconds left to give Michigan a three-point lead.
