Robert Morris vs. Fairfield - 7:00 pm ET - CIT
A three point try by senior Jason Clark was off the mark at the horn and Georgetown (24-9) saw their season end with a 66-63 loss to NC State. Hoya Prospectus crunches the numbers.
Next year it appears the Hoyas will play a game on an aircraft carrier. Neat.
The campaign continues for Fairfield (21-14), who used a late second half push to defeat Manhattan 69-57 in the CIT. This sets up a "Penn vs. Princeton" meeting between Andy Toole's Robert Morris team and Sydney Johnson's Stags on Wednesday.
Ivy Hoops Online and the Pitt News preview tonight's postseason game. Plus there are apparently three keys to ending Princeton's season.
I took part in a cultural exchange with the site Pitt Blather, answering their questions about Princeton's team.
Should fans of the Panthers care about the College Basketball Invitational?
On the other side of the CBI bracket, Oregon State hosts TCU.
