    22.14: Final Fours

    In what seems like a blink of an eye, the NCAA Tournaments are down to the final four teams. Four rounds are in the book with two more to be played to crown two champions in Division III basketball. Tune into Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com as we take a look back at an incredible weekend of basketball which saw none of the host teams advance. We also look ahead at what should be terrific games in Fort Wayne and Salem. Hear from coaches of teams outside of the Top 15 who have helped shake up the tournaments. Also hear from players on the top teams in the nation. And hear from one individual who has seen two coaches in the finals fours up close and personal.

    The NCAA Division III Men's and Women's Tournaments are ready to tip-off. And after about 36-hours, each bracket will be cut in half. What surprises await? This is one of the best weekends of the year. Tune into the Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com as Dave McHugh takes one last look at the NCAA Tournaments ahead.

    22.12: Suddenly Sixteen

    Suddenly the Division III Men's and Women's Basketball Championship Tournaments are down to sixteen teams, each. It's a known result each year, but it's still stunning and the results this past weekend were equally as stunning. Tune into Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com as we talk to those who either dominated or survived through regional play. Most of those we talk with today were either pulled off at least one upset or once again proved they know how to win in March. And five years ago, the DIII tournaments, like everything else in the world, ceased. Teams were ready to play the next round of tournament games, but instead went home. It left so many "what-ifs" and predictions on who may have been crowned 2020 National Champions. D3hoops.com Around the Nation Columnist Ryan Scott took the time, shortly after the shutdown, to prognosticate how he would have seen the tournaments play out. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - Alyssa Polosky, SUNY Geneseo women's coach - Brad Fischer, No. 11 UW-Oshkosh women's coach - Ryan Scott, D3hoops.com Around the Nation columnist - Marcus Kahn, Mary Washington men's coach - Aaron Kelly, Catholic men's coach - Will Bartoszek, Austin Brewer and Matt Brackett, Hardin-Simmons senior forward, senior center, and men's coach

    22.10: Brackets Breakdown Special

    The NCAA Division III Men's and Women's Tournaments and brackets are set. The new NPI was the source of all the selections and mock brackets had different ideas than what were revealed. So how did the national committees come up with their brackets and decisions on who to play where and when? Plus, we hear from teams dancing in the tournaments for the first time in a long time. Tune into the Hoopsville Bracket Breakdown as Dave McHugh is back in studio and rolling his sleeves up on the national tournaments. We chat with both national committee chairs about the brackets. We also talk to four hoops programs who made some waves in the final days and weeks of the regular season and are still playing in March. It's all part of a special Tuesday matinee of Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - National Committee Chairs - Bethany Dannelly, women's chair and OAC commissioner - John Alesi, men's chair and Baruch men's coach - Ramiro Dominguez, Principia women's coach - Colin Tabb, Western New England men's coach - Clay Nunley & Marcus Morgan, No. 20 Roanoke coach and junior guard - Marion Dietz, Mount St. Mary women's coach - Ryan Scott, D3hoops.com Around the National Columnist

    22.9: Selection Sunday Special

    It is an annual event. The regular season is officially over and teams eagerly wait to see where they may be playing in the NCAA Tournaments, but it is different this year. We know who has made the tournaments, so there is a bit more time to look at where teams may end up on those brackets and where they may play. Tune in to the annual Hoopsville Selection Sunday Special hosted by Pat Coleman tonight (Dave McHugh is away on a business trip). Pat will have interviews with teams who have clinched their bids automatically or may be nervously waiting to see how the final NPI numbers work themselves out for at-large selections. Plus, hear from both national committee chairs on the landscape they see in front of them and their committees as they try and bracket with new priorities and perspectives. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - National Committee Chairs - John Alesi, men's chair and Baruch men's coach - Bethany Dannelly, women's chair and OAC commissioner - Ryan Hyland, John Jay men's coach - Mark Christner, Calvin women's coach - Laurie Kelly, No. 6 Gustavus Adolphus women's coach - Dave Arsenault, Jr., Grinnell men's coach - Troy Patterson and Kailey Mulkey, Texas Lutheran women's coach - Jason Zimmerman, No. 12 Emory men's coach - Ryan Scott, bracketologist and D3hoops.com Around the National Columnist

    22.8: Furious Finish

    The final push is here. In just days, the Division III regular season will be over and just 128 teams will be left to play for two national championships. It promises to be a furious finish. On a matinee edition of Thursday's Hoopsville, hear from some of the programs hoping to either secure a place in the NCAA tournaments or secure a higher seed to enjoy some home court and cooking. Plus, we chat with one program not afraid of a close game or a last second shot. And we take a look at the latest top seeds per NPI, updates to the coaching carousel, and more on Thursday's edition of Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com.

    FEB 24

    22.6: Top 16 Seeds

    Hoopsville is once again home to the Top 16 Seeds reveal in conjunction with the D-III national committees. Get a preview of who could be hosting and how brackets would come together if the NCAA Tournaments started this weekend. Also hear exclusively from both nat'l committee chairs. Also on Thursday's edition of Hoopsville presented by D3hoops.com, hear exclusively from both DIII national committee chairs on how the NPI system has worked within their committees along with what they are already looking at in terms of bracketing opportunities and challenges. Which teams may look like they could host but may have to hit the road? And why the term "protected seeds" doesn't mean they are guaranteed to host. It was a very popular addition to the countdown to the Division III national tournaments and it's back, exclusively on Hoopsville. Also stay tuned after our conversation with the committee chairs for a look at conference races that could alter the Top 8 and Top 16 seeding even in the final ten days of the season. Plus, we look at some of the dark horse teams you should be watching closely for how they can alter the DIII bracket landscape. We hear from a few of our experts and put our toe into the water of who is a lock and who is in trouble of moving in and out of coveted seed placement. Guests include: - National Committee Chairs: - John Alesi, men's chair and Baruch men's coach - Bethany Dannelly, women's chair and Ohio Athletic Conference commissioner - Ryan Scott, D3hoops.com columnist - Pat Coleman, D3hoops.com Editor-in-Chief
