D4 field is set.

Upsets ruled the day in Championship games so this years tournament is not as many would have predicted. Southern NAIA Tech claimed a #1 seed in the South despite having a 16-14 record when they knocked off Southern NAIA Tech-Hooterville 87-76. Wisconsin A&M-Springstead also pulled off an upset in overtime over Exeland Institute/Edgewater Institute at Ojibway (EIEIO) 118-117 to get an automatic bid. This knocked Bodine Military Academy out of the tournament.

EIEIO seemingly had the game in hand but fouled WAMS on a 75ft 3 pointer with no time left on the clock. WAMS converted the 4 point play and won it in the 4 minute overtime period.

The bracket is as follows:

North Region @Mercer K-12 School
#1 Southern NAIA Tech-Hooterville 18-11 vs. #4EIEIO 2-2
#2Wisconsin A&M-Springstead 3-2 vs. #3Bugtussle State 14-14

South Region @Sam Drucker Arena
#2 Daisy Moses Medical College 19-10 vs. #3 *Alaska-Adak 11-16
#4 Mount Pilot Central State 17-12 vs. #1 Southern NAIA Tech 16-14
