I heard today on the radio that the NJCAA basketball tournament was going on.
Looks like the way it's set up, the country is divided up into a number of districts, which have their own championships, then the winners go on to the national championships.
On the men's side of things, teams in our region that won their districts are: John A. Logan (Carterville, IL), Moberly Area (Moberly, MO), and Southeastern (Burlington, IA). Also Vincennes University (Vincennes, IN) was selected as an "at-large" team.
3/20 - Vincennes beat Trinity Valley
3/21 - Southeastern beat Snead State, John A. Logan beat Monroe, and Vincennes beat Southern Idaho
3/22 - Moberly Area plays Dodge City at noon, and Southeastern plays Odessa at 6 PM
3/23 - John A. Logan plays Midland at noon, Vincennes plays Northwest Florida State at 2 PM
On the women's side, teams in our region are: Moberly Area (MO), Wabash Valley (Mount Carmel, IL), and Three Rivers (Poplar Bluff, MO)
3/22 - Moberly Area plays Barton at 10 AM,
3/23 - Three Rivers plays Gulf Coast State at noon, Wabash Valley plays TBD at 8 PM
Beyond that, all the other postseason tournaments are now either completed or have eliminated all teams in our vicinity, with the exception of the Men's NIT, where Wisconsin will play North Texas on March 28th.
