14 seed for your first time in the tournament is pretty good. Hopefully I'll be in Louisville to cheer on the Sugar Bears! |

On a semi-related topic, can anyone explain why, if Abilene Christian wasn't eligible for the SLC or NCAA tournament, are they eligible for the WNIT? |

I believe it's because the WNIT is not an NCAA sanctioned event. |

https://www.triplecrownsports.com/Sports/College-Basketball.aspx Triple Cown Sports conducts the WNIT. I believe since it is not a NCAA recognized event, then any NCAA team can play if not on "no post season" sanctions and the tourney meets the NCAA rules for participation (ie, no pay to play, etc). ACU is not sanctioned by NCAA but simply in transition from D2 to D1. |

Probably explains why one is linked from the NCAA site while the other is not. |

Understand the frustration and I couldn't get the streaming video either. However, one has to admit, once posted that picture is priceless and soon to become "timeless". Another historical event for UCA athletics.  Way to go ladies. Beat Louisville! |
