NSIC Tourney Update

Tonight's quarterfinal round of the NSIC Tournament offered very little in the way of surprises. All but one higher seed advanced, though you could hardly call Winona State's win over St. Cloud State a surprise.

There is still one quarterfinal game to be played.

The Minnesota State-Minnesota Duluth women's contest was postponed due to a rare--at least this year--winter storm. The game has been rescheduled for 3 p.m. today, in Duluth, Minn.
