Lady Knights open Region 24 Tournament play Sunday, March 8th

The OCC Lady Knights will open up Region 24 Tournament play on Sunday March, 8th. 

The Lady Knights will get to host although earning the 5 seed behind John A. Logan.  Due to construction in Logan's gymnasium and unavailability of the guys that have been playing at, OCC will get the chance to host.  Tip-off will be at 1:00 CST in the Dungeon. 

The Lady Knights split with the Lady Vols in the regular season.  John A. Logan came out on top 75-60 in the Dungeon on January 14th while OCC knocked off the Lady Vols February 18th at Southeastern Illinois College by a score of 61-49.

Southwestern Illinois earned the 1 seed by completing their 29-0 perfect season with a 14-0 Region record. 

Vincennes and Wabash Valley split on the season and finished 11-3 in region play. Vincennes won the tie breaker over the Warriors finishing in the 2 seed while Wabash Valley finished 3rd. 

Rend Lake held off Lincoln Trail in the last game of the season to secure the 6th seed leaving Lincoln Trail in the 7th spot.

Shawnee suspended the remainder of their season mid-February leaving the 8th seed vacant in the tournament. This will also give SWIC a bye in the first round.
