WEDNESDAY NIGHT’S FEBRUARY FRENZY CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT ACTION

Two number seven seeds over two seeds, a number six over a three and a five over a four in last night’s action! And honorable mention goes to the Viterbo V-Hawks, an eight seed who gave the one seed nearly all they could handle in a valiant 69-66 loss.
