In Big South action... USC-Upstate sweeps UNC-Asheville..... Winthrop wins in OT tonight to get the split with Radford.. and High Point sweeps the Bucs of Charleston Southern. Its not easy to get victories in the Bucdome... so for HPU to win on back to back nights.. shows that HPU is back on track.
I remember in the late 80s.. early 90s... UNCG made the transition from DIII to DI. In their last year of transitioning to DI... they won the conference, but lost in the Conference Final. For some reason I think if they had won... they couldnt go to the NCAA tourney. Not sure why the Big South let them compete in the conference tournament if that was the case.
I wondered that too. Most moving up a level aren't going to be good enough to qualify for the Tourney right away. If they are, why prevent them from doing so?
