Final Regional rankings

[jackmd]

UNK and UNO move ahead of us.  USD holds steady at #6.  Col. Christian barely made the RMAC tourney.  Selection committee needs to consider us for a #2 seed if we win the NCC tourney, especially if Matt is back for good.  First we need to win the tourney, then we will see.

North Central
1. Metropolitan State 25-2
2. Nebraska-Kearney 24-3
3. Nebraska-Omaha 20-7
4. South Dakota State 25-5
5. Northern State 21-6
6. South Dakota 19-8
7. Bemidji State 19-8
8. Colorado Christian 19-8
9. Mesa State 18-8
10. Ft. Lewis 18-8

Women move up to #2, nice work ladies!!  4 NCC teams in the top 5.  SCSU at #8 but with their loss yesterday they are probably out.  Only 1 NSIC team, #1 Concordia.  Jacks could be has high as a #2 seed or as low as #6.  Would be a huge win Friday night.  GO JACKS!!

Women's North Central Region
1. Concordia-St. Paul 25-2
2. South Dakota State 22-5
3. North Dakota State 22-5
4. North Dakota 22-5
5. South Dakota 24-6
6. Nebraska-Kearney 22-5
7. Fort Lewis 21-6
8. St. Cloud State 17-10
9. Colorado State-Pueblo 19-8
10. Regis (Colorado) 19-8

I imagine WNAX will have it via internet broadcast.  I believe I watched a webcast last year, I can't remember for sure.

Re: Final Regional rankings

does anyone know if they have a webcast on their site or do you have to have the cable or sattelite channel? We have a lot of work to do until sunday but it would be nice to see what a national media outlet has to say about the Jacks and NCC

Re: Final Regional rankings

No major upsets in the RMAC on the women's or men's side.  Col Christian lost their first round game, they are out. If Ft. Lewis or Mesa St. can pull off an upset Saturday, they are in.
