It looks like we got our Christmas present early this year. I hope the ladies take advantage of it.

Essentially - yes. They give 32 auto bids to the highest ranked team remaining from each conference who didn't make the NCAA. If teams decline then they add at-large teams who were either over .500 or Top 120 in RPI.

With Ball State getting an at-large bid along with BG into the NCAA, it left Ohio as the top ranked MAC school so we got the MAC auto bid to the NIVC.

Appears 14 of the 32 auto bids were accepted. Remaining 18 were at-large's.

It is a pay to play tournament.

It is ran by Triple Crown sports which runs pay to play postseason tournaments in about every sport. It is an interesting concept, especially, when it triggers coaching bonuses for qualifying for post season tournaments.

That was ugly! Team lacked heart and toughness. They were just as talented as Xavier, but Xavier wanted the win more than us.

Kind of tough to say that a team coached by Geoff lacked heart.

You are probably right, the team won some tough matches and has shown heart throughout the season, but for whatever reason has trouble last night and also against Buffalo. Watch the match if you can, I started to but had to turn it off midway through the third set for my own mental health. It was a complete meltdown, we started the second and third sets with serving errors, indicative of things to come. We had the look of deer in the headlights. We murdered them in the first set, and I guess they did some adjustments, why we did not adjust to their adjustments I don't know. Maybe this one is on Geoff. Caitlin O'Ferrill looked unstoppable in the first set, then I guess Xavier made an adjustment and she was quiet from then on. I did not see any play such as where the center swings around and hits from the right setter's position. Just my opinion, if anyone else saw different let them comment.
