Females are peahens.

Females are peahens.

And yet their women’s team are also Peacocks. But, it wasn’t always so.

Williams on Arkansas might be the worst flopper on offensive fouls since Shane Battier.
I hate offensive fouls in college hoops.

Foul hunting is a scourge on the sport

I don't usually pay attention to all region teams. Is it common for it to be composed of 3 or 4 players from one team? Are all of the players named commonly from only the teams in the regional final?

Given that any player who wasn’t in the final would have played in at least one fewer game, and lost said game -

Unless somebody really went to plaid in a heroic losing effort, it’s unlikely they’d have done ‘more’ than guys who won that game, and then played well in the next one.

I understand all that. As I said, I don't typically pay attention to these. I wasn't asking the philosophy by which the team is chosen. I was asking about history from people that do. So, do you know if historically this is typical or is it more common that a player or two may have excelled in the first weekend games then played well in a loss in the sweet 16. It's not inconceivable. All I'm asking is how common it is.
