All quiet here at Medary.com . . . I’ve been busy over at the sdsufans.com site[*1] , and on the road between Kansas City and Brookings keeping up with the South Dakota State women’s basketball[*2] team. The Jackrabbits are making unprecedented noise in the Women’s NIT tournament[*3] , having defeated Illinois State in front of a near-sellout crowd, and will host the Indiana Hoosiers this Thursday in a game that was sold out in about four hours after tickets went on sale on Monday. SDSU is in the third year of the five-year transition from NCAA Division II to Division I. A transitioning team has never played in an NIT tournament, let alone win a game. (Transitioning teams are not eligible to play in the NCAA tournament).
Plus, I’m making pizza tonight . . .
