Why We Love College Hoops

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

I haven't heard, nor do I know, how does this apply to the typical 'foreign' basketball player that is most often over 19?

Obviously, this is a sentimental and not a ‘spreadsheet’ notion, but would hate to see @MVCsports change the #ArchMadness format from the traditional ‘family reunion’ feel by cutting teams from the experience. #FatherHarry

Congrats to @ISURedbirdGolf. T.J. Barger sets a school record. Pietro Pontiggia records the Redbirds' second-ever top 20 finish at a regional. The team finishes tent in the region which is tied for the program's best regional finish! #FatherHarry
