Really surprised they got a 13 seed. Shows the committee was really impressed with what WIU did this season. Kinda stinks that they playing in NC so a lot fans probably won't make the trip, but glad they are getting to play somewhere different.

Carmichael Arena is pretty cozy.  Only seats about 6300.  Might be tough ticket for the general public.
