OVC Final Standings

Murray State's season on a disastrous note, as the Racers lost home games to UT-Martin and SEMO to end the season.  Nevertheless, the Racers did top a rather weak OVC Western Division, so they get a bye to the semi-finals in next week's OVC Tournament.  Morehead State and Eastern Kentucky also qualified for the OVC Tournament.  Morehead will play UT-Martin in the first round on Wednesday, and will play Tennessee State if they survive that.  Eastern will play the winner of SEMO and Eastern Illinois, and will play Murray State if they win that game.
