Championship Weekend Lives Up to the Hype – DI Men’s Rundown Week 16
Here we are at the end of the season.

NCAA Tournament Field Set – DI Men’s Rundown Week 13
We’ve made it! It’s crazy to think back to January when this season even existing was full of question marks. Some teams didn’t even have a fall, a preseason, or a season at all in a few cases.

Notre Dame & Virginia Add to ACC Confusion – DI Rundown Week 9
While the top-five teams saw a few upsets (thank you Notre Dame and Virginia), the top 20 was pretty stable this week overall. Most of the teams that should have won did, and nearly every top-20 team won. But, that’s not to say things aren’t getting interesting. So we’ll take a little bit of a […]
