Tonight’s feature conference is the SoCon, which has three teams fighting for first place in the latter part of the season. Samford, who hasn’t finished in first place of any league since 1999, has a chance to win the SoCon this year, but will have to hold off Furman and UNC Greensboro in order to do it.
From there we run through the other 22 UTR leagues and take a look at who is on the verge of clinching 1st place, and who all could be eliminated from qualifying for their conference tournaments this week. Youngstown State continues to be a great story in the Horizon League. Hofstra actually holds the tiebreaker over Charleston in the Colonial and will lock up the #1 seed in the CAA Tourney if they win out. The MAC and Ivy League races are exciting as some of the top teams are slated to face each other this week. Southern Miss is looking better and better and could be a very dangerous team if they can get to the Round of 64, and Drake is continuing to play at a high level as they’re in a race to win the Missouri Valley. We discuss all that, and much more. And, as we do every week, we close the show with this week’s UTR Top Ten.
And for all you radio lovers, below is an audio only version of the show…
