Conference Championship Alert: Horizon, Sun Belt, Summit

This half of The March is busy with his day job, so this will be short. Three championship games on tap for tonight:
  • Butler vs. Cleveland State, Horizon League (ESPN, 9 pm) - If Butler loses, they'll probably take a bubble spot, so they'll be rooting for the Bulldogs all the way from Gainesville to Albuquerque.

  • Western Kentucky v. South Alabama, Sun Belt (ESPN2, 10 pm) - WKU was the squad that upset Drake in the first round last year on a buzzer-beating 3 from Tom Coverdale lookalike Ty Rogers. They're looking to get back for a repeat performance this year.

  • North Dakota State v. Oakland, Summit League (ESPN2, 8 pm) - Remarkably, top-seeded North Dakota State is looking to get to the Dance in its first season in Division I. More on their impressive season from Andy Katz here (scroll down).
