Now that the Arch Madness seedings and schedule are official, the task changes for Missouri State’s men’s basketball team.
The Bears held off Bradley for the No. 6 seed for the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament next weekend in St. Louis … barely.
Missouri State and Bradley tied for the sixth spot in the Valley, with 7-11 league records. The teams split their two regular-season meetings and had to go to the second tiebreaker — adjusted RPI according to The RPI Report on Sunday morning.
The Bears checked in at No. 216, just ahead of No. 220 Bradley.
