The league will determine seeding for the Baltimore-based tournament will be determined by league records. Heading into this week a total of five of the league’s 12 men’s programs have a realistic shot at getting the top two seeds, which come with a day off between the quarterfinals and the semifinals should those teams advance.
Both Virginia Union and Virginia State head into the stretch run of CIAA North play with 9-3 records in league play, separating themselves from the rest of the pack in that division. VUU is currently 19-5 overall, and a spotless 6-0 in division play with games left against Lincoln, Bowie State, Shaw and Virginia State. VSU is 16-7 overall, but is just 3-3 in CIAA North play. It will match up with Bowie State, Shaw and Elizabeth City State before closing the season with a rematch against Virginia Union, which won the first matchup between the two programs last month.
