On the women's side, Trine fell to 7 Cumberland 4-3 and were eliminated. St Vincent lost to 13 SCAD 4-3 and were also eliminated.
On the men's side, Trine were beaten by 14 Spring Arbor 4-1 and were eliminated. Marian (WI) however went on a run in the losers bracket. First they took down 13 Purdue 4-3, then 9 McKendree 4-2, followed by 4 Wichita St 4-3, and 16 Southern Nazarene 4-3. That sent them to a rematch with 5 St Ambrose who made it through the winners bracket. They would need to defeat them twice to make it to the finals but they lost the first match 4-3.

The men's ITC title will be between a pair of NAIA schools from Iowa. The St Ambrose Fighting Bees from Davenport and the Mount Mercy Mustangs from Cedar Rapids.
The women's title will be D1 Jacksonville State Gamecocks from Jacksonville, Alabama vs D2 McKendree Bearcats from Lebanon, Illinois.

In early men's double elimination bracket play Marian lost their opening best of 7 match against 5th seed St Ambrose 4-1. They will open the day against 13 seed Purdue and if they win that they'll face 9 seed McKendree. Trine meanwhile pulled the upset against 2nd seed SCAD 4-3 before losing to 7 Lawrence Tech 4-1. They await the winner of 11 Belmont Abbey and 14 Spring Arbor.

In the women's bracket St Vincent lost to 5 seed Sacred Heart 4-3. They will start the day with 13 seed SCAD and if they win will face 9 Central Missouri. Trine almost continued to match their men but lost to 2 Louisiana Tech 4-3. They start the day against 7 Cumberland and if they win will face 11 Tulane.

Was anyone else reminded of 1983 NC State? Whittenburg to Charles for the title? Just needed coach Marcus Kahn to run around looking for someone to hug.

Big comeback at the end for Emory to tie it but Mary Washington beats the buzzer and wins the title 75-73

NCAA tournament matches are first to two points. First is the traditional 5 bowler team game, second is 5 baker game total. Then if necessary a best of 7 baker games. (For those unfamiliar, baker games are where the team bowls a single game so leadoff bowls frames 1 and 6, second bowls frames 2 and 7, etc.)

In the opening round of the NCAA tournament St Vincent lost to Belmont Abbey 2-1 (traditional team game: 876-918, 5 baker games: 956-812, best of 7 baker games 1-4) and were eliminated.

Carroll won their opening round match 2-1 over Fayetteville St (909-856, 890-892, 4-0) and advanced to double elimination play but lost 2-0 to #1 ranked Jacksonville St (899-1062, 852-1046) and then 2-1 to defending champs Youngstown St (902-890, 891-917, 0-4)

The four regional winners headed to the championships are Arkansas St, Jacksonville St, Vanderbilt, and Wichita St
