#114 Syracuse trying to upset #19 Louisville and setter Rivera (Penn State former reserve setter) with a 2-0 set lead (27-25 and 25-23). If Louisville loses this match then they open the door for #24 Pittsburgh to take the AQ if Pittsburgh wins today. If both teams lose then Louisville gets AQ based on head to head win. Either way, both teams should make the post season.
#15 Creighton takes set one 25-20 on Villanova in semi 1 of the Big East tournament.
Louisville takes set three 25-21 to stay in match.
Creighton takes set two 25-22
Louisville takes set four 25-15 to force a 5th set
Creighton takes set three 25-19 to complete the sweep and ends Villanova's post season hopes
Creighton moves on to the final tomorrow against winner of semi 2
Louisville comes back from being down 0-2 in sets and takes set five 15-12 from Syracuse which seals the AQ for post season. Pittsburgh can still share conference title with a win.

just a hypo here: what if team A has a 30 RPI and wins a share of a League Title, along w/team B with an RPI of 75. NCAA has to accept both?

Each conference has Tie Breakers to determine which team gets AQ if both teams are co-champions of conference. Only way team B makes it is if they win AQ by TB, win conference tournament or are in top 40 RPI (approx.) Right now positions 46-64 for the NCAA tournament are taken by AQ teams with low RPI's. There are still 4 AQ's left to be determined. |

Kentucky wins earlier with a sweep of Georgia to get a share of the SEC title. A loss by FL tomorrow and KY gets AQ and SEC title by themselves. A win by FL and FL gets the AQ based on head to head points. MD up 2-0 sets on NW. Still may be alive for an at large. MD sweeps NW and helps their chances of getting into post season as an at-large. UNI up 2 sets to 1 on Illinois State. Just started set 4 Colorado hammering Utah 20-9 in set 1 Colorado ends Utah's misery in set one 25-13. We want Colorado to win this match for our RPI! UNI takes set four 25-15 to move on to Finals tomorrow in MVC. Utah wakes up in 2nd set and are up 17-12 on Colorado Utah wins set two 25-19 Colorado blows set three with some sloppy play and lets Utah come back to take it 25-23. Have to go to 5 now for a win by CO Colorado again blows a set. This time twice! First, they were ahead 16-11 and then at 23-20 to give Utah the set at 26-24 and match 3-1  Should have gone to middle more to close out sets! |
