National Spotlight on GLVC Teams

(St. Louis, MO) – Great Lakes Valley Conference teams and players are gaining national reputations. Two GLVC teams are ranked in the Division 2 top ten predictions by “Sporting News“. Bellarmine is ranked fourth and defending national champion Drury is seventh.

Bellarmine’s Vance Hall is a first team, preseason all-american with honorable mentions going to Ryan Jackson (Lewis), Orlando Rutledge (Southern Indiana) and Asa Toney (Maryville).

CBS recently announced that the January 25th game between Maryville and Drury will be nationally televised on CBS Sports Network. The national champions will host that game at O’Reilly Family Event Center in Springfield.

The GLVC’s growing reputation as one of the best Division 2 basketball conferences has been bolstered as conference teams have won two of the last three D-2 championships and have sent a team to championship game three of the last four years.

Flooding, lightning strikes, etc. have cost @RacersHoops two home games. Had to play 'neutral site' tonight instead of at home and Wednesday's goes from home to away. Tough break for the Racers, and the whole area has been hit with difficulties. #FatherHarry

Murray State's scheduled home game Wednesday vs. Southern Illinois being moved to Banterra Center in Carbondale. #ValleyHoops

Gigantic game for @BradleyUMBB today in Des Moines. If they have a chance to catch @DrakeBulldogsMB, they have to win today. The Bulldogs can basically win the title today. @BustingBrackets breaks it all down. #FatherHarry https://bit.ly/3EGiVgi

Not rooting for any particular @ValleyHoops, but chaos is always fun. If things break certain ways, after today there could be a six-way tie for fifth place.
