Bellarmine wins the GLVC title, beating Lewis 74-61 to earn the league's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. The Knights will head to the tournament as the likely #1 seed at 28-3 overall, winners of 15 straight.

Pencil Bellarmine in for yet another return to the elite 8. Scotty is as good as they get behind the bench. Should be coaching a major D I program, but 99% of ADs wouldn't know talent if it smacked them across the face.

I guess the biggest question mark in my eyes is the order of USI/KWC. Don't know how much of a gap the committee had between the two of them and we'll have to see how they react to a 1-pt loss on a neutral court against a ranked team vs 2 (3? I don't know) wins against unranked teams on home court.

I suppose the same question mark could be applied to Findlay and Quincy in their order. It's very possible that you have the correct matchups but incorrect seeding if both teams switch places.

Just wanted to pop in and point out that a women's team that was awful in the GLIAC last season went and won the G-MAC Tournament this year and are dominating. As predicted. Good grief.
