A spokesman for the National Collegiate Athletic Association said that if a federal lawsuit to allow New Jersey sports betting is won by the state, the NCAA would not be able to allow any NCAA championships to be hosted within the state. Currently, Atlantic City hosts the Atlantic 10 championship, and rounds of the NCAA “March Madness” tournament can be scheduled in New Jersey.  The organization has strict rules against allowing any championship events in a metropolitan area that allows wagering on the outcome of its contests.
