Another quick thought is how weird it is that there were two straight all-PSAC regionals in '94-'95.

But at a quick glance, my first thought was: "Ah yes, I remember when Salem had brief stranglehold on the region." They were utterly brutal to play in that period starting around 1997.

Oh so quietly, Salem has put together an 18-8 season this far. Dont think they can "get in" but if were talking about 10 loss teams, we should probably consider an 8 loss team as well.
The few good teams they played all hammered them pretty good (Cal, Daemen, WL).

The other thing Inkblot's infographic leads me to wonder is this: Does anyone recall what prompted Conference Carolinas & CIAA to swap regions around 2008-2009 (or so it appears from the graphic)?
Looks like Mt. Olive & Barton had some nice runs in the region before they headed out.

NEVER mention the year 2008 and the name Mt. Olive.
Very touchy words with the poster IUP CRIMSON HAWKS
LOL
So you know, in 2008 IUP hosted the regional (women's) and lost on Day 1 to No. 8 seed Mt. Olive.

They were amazingly a powerhouse there for a couple years. Didn't they go by Salem International or something like that?

Yes, they were called Salem International during their days as a basketball power. Leading up to that time, I believe they actually went by an Asian-sounding name like Salem Teikyo
"In 1989, Salem formed an alliance with Teikyo University of Tokyo, Japan, which changed the focus of the school to one of education of international students. Salem College was renamed Salem-Teikyo University. The alliance with Teikyo ended in 2000, when the school was purchased by investors from Singapore. At that time, the school changed its name to Salem International University. Salem International University was acquired by Salem Education LLC in June 2005.[1] The school was renamed Salem University in September 2017.[2]"

The 1994 Gannon team advanced in the 4/5 regional play at the Hammermill in game on a three with 0.1 seconds left off an inbound from an alternate possession to beat Millersville by 1 point. GU gave host Cal all they could handle in the regional semifinal, taking the lead with 15-ish seconds left to play to lose by 1 on a runner high off the glass by <first name> White (CalPA will give me the name) in the closing seconds. Edinboro came back to beat IUP in the opener at Hamer Hall. The next night, Gannon played Edinboro in the regional third place game (when did they get rid of that game?) and I got to see a great IUP / Cal contest that was won by visiting IUP. What a fun, tense week of basketball that was!
