Shockers In – Panthers Get Texas – Governors Take On Kansas

(St. Louis, MO) – Wichita State is going dancing! Northern Iowa has a tough road going forward and Cinderella (Austin Peay) needs more miracles to move on.

The Shockers (24-8) were the most talked about ‘bubble team’ in the country will take on Vanderbilt (19-13) and former Illinois State coach Kevin Stallings in a ‘first four’ game in Dayton. If the Shockers win they head to Providence to play six seeded Arizona (25-8).

Northern Iowa (22-12) is saddled with an 11 seed and a first round match up with # 6 Texas (20-12). The Longhorns lost two of their last three games. Like the Panthers, Texas was fourth in the Big 12.

Austin Peay (18-17)isn’t in a first four game, but they have a tall order taking on Kansas. The Jayhawks (30-4) are the number one overall seed, which theoretically makes the Governors the 68th seed. Perfect. Austin Peay, who has won six straight, has Kansas right where they want them!

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.
