Pretty hard to criticize a great D3 event like the Great Lakes Invite, but La Crosse gets paired up with St. John's, who they seem to play every other year and a host of other MIAC teams, and Marietta, who they just played in the 22-23 season. I would've like to see the Eagles go up against JHU, JCU or Emory. 

I do plan on making the trip depending on who Point has at their 4-team tournament the same weekend, I believe.

On top of La Crosse's opponents...which like you said, would have been cool to see them playing teams they didn't just play...but why would La Crosse get the 1 pm time slot on both days?  They kind of got the shaft on that one.  I get them having the earliest game once, but not twice.

Someone on Twitter posted that they are actually already playing each other before the GLI schedule came out. Now, the organizer of the event is changing the schedule again, I believe.

Regarding the scheduling, I guess they don't want the late game participants playing an earlier game the following day. I suppose they are just trying to keep the rest periods the same? Obviously the hosts are going to get the prime time games.
