#1 seed South Dakota State gets tripped up by an inspired #8 seed Western Illinois team (first time ever an 8 beats a 1 in the SL Tourney).
WIU comes back and plays #4 seed North Dakota State tough, but NDSU hangs on for a 3 point victory tonight (Monday).

#2 seed Omaha (in just their 4th year of D1 eligibility) will play in their 2nd tourney championship game tomorrow. They edged #7 seed North Dakota on Saturday, and tonight played #3 seed Purdue Ft. Wayne to a trademark close game, winning by 1 point. During the season Omaha beat PFW in OT in January and by 3 points at home in February. In the 17 times Omaha and PFW have met, the teams have played five games that have gone to overtime. The last nine meetings have all been five-point margins or gone to overtime. Omaha held PFW's 4 time all conference player John Konchar to just 13 points in 36 minutes. Konchar, an NBA prospect, is the first player in NCAA Division I men's basketball history to eclipse 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds, 500 assists and 200 steals in a career. His 3 point shot at the end of the game was off the mark.

It's #2 seed Omaha vs. #4 seed North Dakota State on Tuesday for the NCAA bid.
During the season Omaha beat NDSU by 13 points at home in January and by 8 points in Fargo in February.
