With the men’s basketball regular season over, it’s time to get ready for the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Tournament in St. Louis, appropriately known as Arch Madness.
Last season, the tournament was full of surprises. No. 6 Indiana State University knocked off No. 3 Illinois State University in the quarterfinals, and No. 8 Loyola took No. 1 Wichita State University to the final minutes before WSU pulled away in the quarterfinals.
This year should be no different, as the MVC standings have been tight for most of the season. With that in mind, it’s sometimes hard for teams to prepare for the wild weekend.
