No room for the Lady Paladins in the 148 spots spread across the 3 Womens College Basketball 🏀 tournaments…

68 teams make the NCAA Big Dance on the Womens side and that is followed by 32 more teams in the Womens Basketball Invitational Tournament ( WBIT ).

After the Top 100 teams have been placed in the brackets of those two events, the Womens National Invitational Tournament gobbles up another 48 teams

With 148 teams  hearing their name called, there was a reason to hope that the Southern Conference would get a third team into the field. But sadly, that was not the case and the 18 – 13 Lady Paladins can now turn their attention on next season.

That concludes the winter  version of Saved by the Bell 🔔: The Cavalier College Years.

Now that we know the 68 Men and Women’s College Basketball teams going to be Bigger Dance 💃, we can focus on the field for the W.N.I.T and Furman University !

5 of the 32 is locked 🔒 in and we know that Samford University has the lone SoCon bid. Now that leaves Furman, East Tennessee State University and UT – Chattanooga with their fingers crossed 🤞

It’s okay to cross your toes as well !!!

Sunday March 15th and the Morning 🌄 Brew includes leaving West Virginia, celebrating with Dakota Walls, invites to the Women’s tournament and quality time with Vickey Ritchie !

CCHS calendar is Blank
Two races 🏁 this Spring and both ended in Top 3 finishes !!!

Later today we look to find out two things – which three teams are being sent to Duke University for the NCAA and did Alyssa Ervin and Furman University do enough to earn an invite to the smaller of the Dances 💃. They will play on Thursday if they make the guest list!

We have played five games across three days this week and divided time in between Charleston and Beckley but now its time for our Golden Bears 🐻 to hit the road. First stop ✋ on the drive back will be at Hillsville Elementary School to work with Vickey Ritchie and our Special Olympics Basketball program.

I haven’t heard anything officially but maybe Callie Harris will lace up her sneakers one more time and play in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes ✝️ Basketball All – Star game here in the near future.
