Thanks for visiting. Wonder if there's anyone out there with a Great Lakes blog. Wish I had the energy to do another region. Some great VB over there. I mentioned it on my blog at the time, but I was impressed with Hope, Calvin and Heidelberg at last year's regional. Hope's Nora Slenk became one of my favorite players after about five points.

Any word on whether the CCIW final is at NCC or Carthage?  I suppose with the amount of effort it took to type this, I could have looked it up.  Oh well.

Never mind.  Carthage @ 2:00.  FYI.

Carthage's football announcer just passed word along that the Lady Reds swept North Central in 3 to take the CCIW championship!

I saw the Lady Reds 2 or 3 times last year and they looked like they could compete beyond the D3 level.  I believe they returned most of their important players, and one of them, Drewann Pancratz, is only a sophomore this year.  They might have a nice run through the tournament.

The football announcer was saying he heard they may end up in Holland, MI or Oshkosh WI, with perhaps as high as a #2 seed.

MWC Champ:  St. Norbert, who knocked off Beloit in 3 per conference web-site!

As CCIW Tourney champ Carthage (31-5) receives the conference's automatic bid to the national tourney. However, there appears a good chance North Central, who finished with a great 34-4 record, will also receive a bid.

Could be in St. Louis as well. I think either or both of Whitewater/Carthage will be at Wash U because the MIAC powers have to be in Oshkosh. Need to somehow fill out the Wash U 2-4 seeds to go along with Nebraska Wesleyan. North Central could fill out St. Louis with three Pool A's (maybe Webster, Simpson and Lakeland?).

Looks like Carthage got a #4 seed, as they will open up aginst Simpson College, and then face the winner of Nebraska Wesleyan/UW Platteville in St. Louis.

Great work on your predictions however, as just about everything you said came true, with exception to Lakeland going to Michigan instead of Missouri.
