Redbirds Slip To #15 in Final Ranking

2008-02-12

With losses to Eastern Illinois and Robert Morris and a split with Iowa, the Redbirds played themselves out of the top ten of the Central Region of the ACHA. Just one MACHA Gold team remained in the top ten. Missouri State will represent MACHA Gold in the Regional Playoffs.

Close but no National Tournament. Several MACHA Gold teams had a rough few weeks since returning from Winter Break. Iowa and the Redbirds dropped from the top ten and SUIe, who had been close for several rankings could not push in.

You can attend the Regional phase of the National Tournament Regional Playoff dates February 22-23, 2008.
