Conference Tournaments - March 4, 2026

 Ohio Valley

#1 Seed – Tennessee State

We have another nice bracket with the top 2 seeds getting bye’s to the semi-finals.  UT-Martin led this conference for most of the season but fell off.  I loved when Morehead beat Louisville some time ago.   For that reason alone, my pick is Morehead.

Big South

#1 Seed – High Point

High Point has been humming along nicely all year long and finish at 27-4.  This is a 13 seed, perhaps 12 when all is said and done.  They can win a game from either seed.  I’m betting they at least get a chance.  Pick – High Point

Atlantic Sun

#1 Seed – Central Arkansas

Central Arkansas is famous for Scottie Pippen.  I hate the Bulls so they are out. Austin Peay tied up top with a 15-3 record but fall to the 2 seed.  This bracket has upset written all over it.  According to Google, Lipscomb’s most famous alumni is Kelsea Ballerini.  Good enough for me.  Th ePick - Lipscomb

Summit

#1 Seed – North Dakota State

This one is going to be short and sweet; Noth Dakota St is the 1 seed but St. Thomas split with them during the season.  I’m guessing they meet in the championship for the chance to be a 14 seed.  St. Thomas is the pick.

Northeast

#1 Seed – LIU

I just learned this year that LIU is no longer the Blackbirds after merging two campuses.  Now they are the Long Island Sharks.  They took the Blackbirds, merged with Pioneers and came up with Sharks…that’s not better.  I have to pick Central Connecticut State since they have the best mascot.  CCSU Blue Devils are the pick.
