2016 Selection Sunday
MVC
Southern Illinois gets the 6th seed in the NCAA West Region and will face (11) Old Dominion in the First Round. Go figure, another mid major vs. mid major match-up in the NCAA Tournament First Round. Ugh!
Wichita State gets the 5th seed in the NCAA Midwest Region and will take on (12) Colorado in the First Round. Hey, alright, they don't have to play a mid-major first. Woo-hoo!
Not a major surprise, as no postseason for Bradley, Drake, Evansville, Indiana State, Illinois State, Loyola Chicago, Missouri State, or Northern Iowa. Only 2 of 10 MVC teams in the postseason is not going to cut it.
Non-MVC
Despite their early ousting in the Big 12 Tournament, Kansas State got the #1 seed in the NCAA West Region. They will await the play-in winner between High Point and UTPA.
Washington got the 2nd seed in NIT East Region and will face the Iowa/Wofford winner in the Quarterfinals.
No big surprise, no postseason for Maine, Hawaii, or Florida Atlantic.
