It turned out to be a little touch and go there at the end, but the team made up of former Marquette players has officially made it into the 2016 edition of The Basketball Tournament.
Golden Eagles Alumni were one of 11 teams to earn an automatic bid to the Midwest region because you, the Marquette faithful, handed them enough votes on TheTournament.com. Since you can still enter votes (and recruit votes, thus increasing your share of the potential cash prize if GEA wins the tournament), I’m not sure what the totals on the final day of voting was, but I can tell you that teams 4 through 11 are all within 1,000 points right now.
