The Whitworth Pirates (23-3) open the NCAA Division III playoffs Friday with a game against DePauw, which boasts a 22-5 record and plays a lot like the Whits.

Jason Shoot has an advance of the game.

The Eastern Eagles' season is finished, but the awards keep coming. The Big Sky announces its awards today, but Rodney Stuckey has already been named an academic All-American. Maybe if the school names him valedictorian-to-be, he'll stay another year.

Also, the Big Sky tournament will be held at Weber State for the sixth time.

For more on the Eagles, check Dave Trimmer's blog.
