When it all shakes out, the West Lib-IUP winner should get a pretty favorable draw (on paper) to get to the NC game. They’ll almost certainly wind up on the opposite side of the bracket from Nova SE.

It’s been a wild tournament so far. I wouldn’t be surprised to see West Texas A & M go down tomorrow. Black Hills was cruising until they hit a late rough patch that included 3 losses to Fort Lewis who they turned around and handled last night.

I had to leave with 10 mins left in VUU game. I could not stand watching any more.
VUU could have won if shot attempts were weighted by degree of difficulty.
Looked like shot selection from an AAU game, where win or lose, there is another game.
Rather than a team offense, it looked like five individuals hunting their shot.
#5 was a great 3point shooter, but his teammates drove 1 against 3 rather than pass to him.
it is a shame, for there is much talent on the team.

late to this so apologies for it being out of order, but I went to the IUP game and then stayed for Virginia Union-Fairmont afterward. Some observations:
- Haven't been to many other D2 facilities, but the KCAC is the perfect venue for events like this in regard to arena, seating, food, hotels, ample parking, an extra three practice courts in the field house, etc.
- The schedule of when the regional falls isn't kind to students wanting to stay on campus. And other than free entry into the game, there's not much else to do on campus right now so I'm not sure how enticing that would be for those living in the dorms. Still, would be cool to have a rocking SILENT NIGHT-style crowd in the KCAC once in a while. Or at least a crowd like in the 2013 PSAC tourney that stormed the floor after a really good win over Slippery Rock. (I miss Kevin Reynolds so much.)
- Josh Hill took over for Ryan this year in the SID office and has done a really nice job covering the different sports. The student staff is really, really talented. All those photos and videos by Cam Horning are so nice. It's easy to overlook media stuff like this until you look at schools that don't have them.
- I sat for the first half of the game behind the IUP basket. I can't imagine the budget for an HBCU like Winston Salem State is huge, but it was a huge addition for the KCAC having their pep band and spirit squad. Made it seem like an actual college basketball game. That's gotta be an 8ish hours drive for what turned out to be one game. IUP didn't even have cheerleaders on Saturday.

Monday nights are a little tougher for good restaurant choices as some are closed, but Coney has a deep menu and decent “bar food.” Romeo’s adjacent to campus is good. Stromboli > pizza there in my opinion. Thai@Indiana is also quite good just off Philadelphia Street on 7th. Lemoona House across from 700 Shop on Philadelphia Street is good. El Tosoro is pretty good Mexican on Philadelphia Street too. Spaghetti Benders is also pretty good and recently remodeled.
Best pizza in town, also my opinion, is Venice Cafe’ across from the tennis courts just off of Oakland Ave (Rte. 286). Allow 45 minutes though.
