Falcons Face Kutztown In NCAA D-II First-Round Game
Third-seed Saint Augustine’s College will meet No. 6 seed Kutztown (Pa.) University in the first round of the NCAA Division II Men’s Basketball Tournament Saturday, March 13, in West Liberty, WVa. A game time will be announced later.
The Falcons (26-4 overall) earned an automatic bid by defeating Elizabeth City State University 63-59 for the CIAA Championship on February 27 in Charlotte, N.C. This is fourth appearance overall for the Falcons, who also played in the NCAA Division II tournament in 1983, 1984 and 1997.
The tournament pairings were announced late Sunday night on the ncaa.com website. Both Saint Augustine’s College and Kutztown will play in the Atlantic Region. This is the first meeting between both schools.
“I’m excited to find out where we are going and who we will play,” said Lonnie Blow, Jr., the CIAA men’s basketball coach of the year. “The waiting was tough, but at least the suspense is over.”
The Falcons are in the midst of one of their best seasons in school history. The CIAA title was the second for the Falcons, whose 26 wins are a modern school record for season victories. The Falcons also won 20 games for the first time since 1996-97.
Kutztown (23-7 overall) gained a tournament at-large bid for the second straight year after advancing to the PSAC championship game Saturday. The Golden Bears lost 84-73 to Indiana University of Pennsylvania, the top seed in the Atlantic Region.
The Falcons are led by CIAA tournament MVP Chris Jordan (Sr./Houston, Texas). The Golden Bears are sparked by national player of the year candidate Stephen Dennis.
