Crazy Day in the ‘The Valleys’
(St. Louis, MO) – Saturday was an amazing day to watch basketball in the Missouri Valley and Ohio Valley Conferences. Between the two conferences we had ten games starting between twelve noon and six pm. Five of them were nail-biters. This is why we love college hoops.
Heading into Saturday’s contests, Bradley led the Valley with a four and one record and eight teams were tied for second at three and two! Over in the OVC, three teams were tied for first and two of them were playing each other and the third was playing a two-loss team.
Saturday was wired for excitement from the get go. I went to Lindenwood to watch the Lions take on UT Martin in OVC play, but I monitored all the other games as best I could.
I felt like talking about and showing you brief high lights instead of writing about it. Such drama, heroics and hear-break. This is why we love college hoops.
Enjoy and as always … Do Good

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.
Fun to listen to @MLBLarry on the @SIU_Basketball/@BelmontMBB game tonight. Good job brother. #FatherHarry
