Big Sky post-season

[Spudhead]

As bad as the basketball season was, it's good to see some Big Sky schools get to experience the post-season.

Men
North Dakota in the NCAA.
Weber State, Idaho, and Eastern Washington in the CIT.

Women
Montana State in the NCAA.
North Dakota in the WNIT.
Eastern Washington and Idaho in the WBI.

The big mystery is why UNC's women got nothing. I'm guessing they decided to go WNIT or bust (& busted), but they did have the second-best RPI in the league.

ISU's final RPI was 153 out of 349 schools.

Thus, the median would be 174.5.

ISU women are a true mid-major DI team (in fact, a little above mid).

Wisconsin, who ISU beat this year, finished at 210.
