Where is Lipscomb University, How Do You Pronounce It and Why is it Called Lipscomb?

Lipscomb is headed to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history. And most college basketball fans are reacting the same way, by peppering Google with "Where is Lipscomb?" inquires.

Lipscomb punched their tourney ticket with a win over Florida Gulf Coast in the Atlantic Sun Tournament on Sunday evening. They led the Eagles by 32 points in the second half before holding on for a thrilling victory.

The Bisons — yes, Bisons plural (and here's why) — have been a Division-I member for since 2000. They represent Lipscomb University, a small private institution in the Green Hills neighborhood of Nashville, above five miles southwest of downtown.

It is a Christian school with an enrollment of just 2,987 undergraduate students (1,655 graduate) that was founded in 1891. David Lipscomb and James A. Harding — both leaders in the Churches of Christ, an organization with more than 40,000 congregations worldwide today — founded it as Nashville Bible School. It was later changed to David Lipscomb College, then David Lipscomb University and, in 2005, Lipscomb University.

And it's pronounced "Lip-scum," not "Lip-scomb."
