One year after meeting in an all-time classic NCAA Division II championship game, Adelphi and Tampa appear to be on a collision course for a late-May rematch.
Adelphi unsurprisingly earned the top seed in the North Region, and Tampa did the same in the South Region, setting us up for two titans to clash should they make their way through their respective ends of the bracket.
A look at the seeds for the 18-team tournament:
NORTH
1. Adelphi
2. Saint Anselm
3. Molloy
4. Pace
5. Seton Hill
6. Assumption
7. Saint Michael's
8. Wilmington (Del.)
SOUTH
1. Tampa
2. Wingate
3. Florida Tech
4. Lewis
5. Newberry
6. Lenoir-Rhyne
7. Anderson
8. Concordia Irvine
9. Flagler
10. Barton
The Division II tournament begins with opening-round action on Wednesday, May 6. Those games will both come from the South Region — Anderson vs. Barton and CUI vs. Flagler.
