Game 7: #1 Lee vs. #7 Emmanuel 7:00 pm - 92-79 Men's Championship

This schedule is subject to adjustment based upon the following conference-approved provision: the 7:45 pm game time during the first round will be reserved for the host school provided it (1) qualifies for the tournament and (2) its determined seeding does not afford it either the 5:30 pm or 7:45 pm game initially. In compliance with this provision, whichever game the host team is seeded into (game 1 or game 2) will be swapped with game 4, which is the 7:45 pm game. This provision is being used in both the men's and women's conference basketball tournaments for the sake of consistency.
