Anyone watching the selection show who can post updates for those of us who can't connect?

It's the Gary regional against Purdue in the first game!

Does anyone know if there will be any TV for the games? They did not even highlight ESPN3 coverage for Gary.

It didn't sound like there would be any coverage. They only do so much for baseball, as they did softball.

Kentucky a very healthy 2 seed & Kent State is 3 seed at Gary.

It is the best possible place for Valpo. Against a non-seed (not top 8) at a place closer to our home than Purdue. Our guys will be able to sleep in their own beds and practice at our field. As we played the horizon League tourney there last year it will seem very familiar.

Considering that Michigan State & Indiana State didn't get the Gary regional Valpo should feel very fortunate. Being in the same bracket as Kentucky and Purdue, maybe not so lucky. Although you gotta beat someone pretty tough to make it to the Super-Regional no matter who you are.

Don't discount Kent State either, as they are technically #27, and on a 17 game win streak I believe.
