Do you mind if I put my usual bracket format on this thread?

[SuperHornet]

Go for it. You're a HOFer, Venus, and you're really good at this....

[SuperHornet]

Much better, Venus. Thank you!

Incidentally, does anyone know why the WCC hasn't announced arrangements for their tournament final? Is that normal for them?

[SuperHornet]

OK. Wikipedia shows the WCC Men's Final will take place on TUE. That is NOT referenced on Yahoo!, ESPN, or even the WCC website itself. In fact, the WCC website has NOTHING related to a basketball conference tournament since 2020. What gives with that?

NoCo leads EWU by 13, end-3Q

[Mvemjsunpx]

Bears win by 19.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Sac can't get past their kryptonite as they lose to Weber by 10.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Portland State can now celebrate because their season is finally over. Idaho wins by 23.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Idaho State couldn't wake up from their late-season slumber; they got crushed by NoCo by 18.

NAU leads Montana by 8 at the half.

[Mvemjsunpx]

NAU also wins by 18, so we will see the two hottest teams in the league square off in the 5:30 game tomorrow.

[JALMOND]

NAU also wins by 18, so we will see the two hottest teams in the league square off in the 5:30 game tomorrow.

Two of the three teams with 19 wins lose in the first two games of the tournament.

Nationally, this is not good.

[Mvemjsunpx]

The Bobcats dominated the last three quarters and beat Weber by 21.

[SDHornet]

Sac can't get past their kryptonite as they lose to Weber by 10.

They had our number this year. Was hoping we'd avoid them because of that.

Nevertheless, solid opening year under Campbell. A few more solid recruits and the Lady Hornets will be in the thick of it next year.

Crazy off-the-wall thought: transfer Campbell to the men's team and hire a new women's coach?

[Mvemjsunpx]

Idaho leads Suutah by 1 at the half.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Idaho wins by 13. This was actually the closest of the four QF games.

[Mvemjsunpx]

• UNC 72-54 ISU; The Bears won second-half shooting 62%-29%
  _________________ Finley Garnett, who was averaging just 3 points-per-game coming in, was the only Bengal in double figures
  
  UMT 57-75 NAU; Lumberjacks win point-off-turnovers 26-10
  _________________ Montana endures their most lopsided conference-tournament loss since 1985
  
  WEB 60-81 MSU; After shooting 28% in the first quarter, the Bobcats shot 56% the rest of the way
  _________________ Kori Pentzer scores a team-high 17 in her final game as a Wildcat
  
  IDA 77-64 SUU; Suutah won the boards by 13, but they only made 1 three-pointer
  _________________ Darri Dotson gets a double-double in (maybe) her final game as a T-Bird
