GRR: WIIL
The Wisconsin Illinois Iowa Men's D2 collegiate league has set its schedule.
We're down to one more DII playoff spot to be decided.
Sunday, RPI hosts Sacred Heart in the Tri-State final.
Saturday, the play-ins were held, and the WIIL Conference came out of it pretty well.
#2 Illinois State edged the Midwest winner IUPUI 24-21. The WIIl #3, UW-Milwaukee, defeated Minnesota-Duluth 39-31 to halt Duluth's longtime run to the national final four.
Men's DII College games this weekend.
All of these games are conference playoffs.

Heading towards the final games before the conference tournaments. The WIIL conference is starting to take shape and which teams will compete in the conference playoffs in Cottage Groove, Wisc. is becoming more clear.
It was a big game for Northern Michigan last week, and it gets even bigger this coming week.
NMU will play defending national DII champs Wisconsin-Whitewater this coming weekend, but that clash had to wait for the Mooesmen to get by rivals UW-Milwaukee this past Saturday.
That they did, winning 31-23.
