3/3 recap

Big 12:
@West Virginia 87, Iowa St 76 - a non-event.  ISU has done all their hard work already, this would've just been a bonus.  And it's tough to lift WVU much higher given their resume flaws

OVC semifinals:
Jacksonville St 65, Belmont 59
Tennessee-Martin 73, Murray St 67 - 3 vs. 4 for the OVC title.  Both are borderline 16 seeds, with an outside chance of Dayton.  Belmont going down hurts the conference, but nets them a NIT team

Big South semifinals:
Campbell 66, Radford 50
Winthrop 80, Gardner-Webb 77 (OT) - near disaster for the Big South.  Winthrop against an inferior Campbell for the title.  Campbell an immediate threat to be sent to Dayton

MVC quarterfinals:
Wichita St 82, Bradley 56
Illinois St 80, Evansville 69
Southern Illinois 55, Loyola(Chi) 50
Missouri St 70, Northern Iowa 64

MAAC quarterfinals:
St Peter's 61, Canisius 58
Monmouth 84, Niagara 59

WCC first round:
Pacific 89, Pepperdine 84
Portland 60, San Diego 55

CAA first round:
Delaware 81, Hofstra 76
James Madison 80, Drexel 70

SoCon first round:
Citadel 78, Western Carolina 72
Samford 79, VMI 61

Horizon first round:
Milwaukee 85, Detroit 60
Youngstown St 84, Cleveland St 69

elsewhere:
@Princeton 73, Harvard 69 - Princeton clinches the 1 seed for the Ivy tourney (yes, there's an Ivy tourney now!)
Akron 66, @Kent St 56
