Div II Men's Final Four

[Freddie]

Nova Southeastern Sharks vs Cal State University at San Bernardino, tomorrow (3/23) at 5:30. Go Sharks!! Undefeated so far this year!
I’m a little prejudiced as the Asst Head Coach of the Sharks is my son’s BIL.

1. Who's on the other side of the bracket?

I know Lincoln Memorial has been a power in years past and played for the championship a few years back. They're not far from where I used to live in Tennessee and I've visited their beautiful campus...it's kinda in the middle of nowhere, but they now boast a medical school that trains DOs for family practice, a law school, and a nursing school.

2. Here's the brackets

Looks like West Liberty plays Black Hills State on the other side.

3. Black Hills beat Nova last year to advance

To final four. Ugh.

4. I can't tell from this bracket

what happened to LMU. It looked like they were rolling and then they just....disappeared. I can't see where they lost.

5. down in the lower left quadrant of the quarter finals -

LMU lost to Cal State San Bernadino 88 - 70.

CSSB thus advanced to the semis where they play NOVA tomorrow night

These brackets are confusing because the quarter finals, semis and finals are sandwiched in between the original regionals. Thus the game you are looking for is in the middle of the page in a boxed off square.

6. Thanks

I'll always have a soft spot for LMU, a "little school that could". Also for Virginia Union University, because the first time I got to Richmond and was looking for the apartment complex I'd been allocated by my company (I was travel nursing at the time), I got turned around and ended up on the VUU campus. Two polite young ladies from the university set me straight, gave me directions, and got me on my way.

7. I see NOVA won last night and now play West Liberty Saturday

best of luck to NOVA

8. Interesting with the 2 teams

The head coach at Nova is the former head coach at Liberty, and my relative is a graduate of his program there. Should be a great game!
