GNAC Women’s Basketball Player of the WeekAlisha Breen, Montana State BillingsF • 5-10 • Senior • Choteau, Mont.

Breen helped the Yellowjackets clinch a spot in the GNAC Championships, averaging 28 points against Concordia and Western Oregon.

Around The GNACFIVE DOWN, ONE TO GO: Sitting in sixth place at 8-10, Western Washington controls its destiny to the 2018 GNAC Basketball Championships. With two games to go in the regular season, the Vikings are jostling for position with Si-mon Fraser, Concordia and Western Oregon for the No. 6 seed. All three teams are all 7-11. A big showdown happens tonight as Western Washington can distance itself from the field with a win at Simon Fraser. A Clan win, however, will make the race more interesting as the final games of the regular season will decide who makes the tournament. Regardless of who wins tonight’s contest, the Vikings will have the advantage over Simon Fraser heading into Saturday. Since Simon Fraser hosts Montana State Billings on Thursday, the Vikings will know exactly what they have to do in order to secure a playoff berth. Don’t count out Concordia and Western Oregon though, as each team travels to Washington this week to take on third-place Seattle Pacific and Saint Martin’s. The sixth and final seed will come down to the wire and may need to be determined via tiebreaker when all things are said and done.

GNAC CHAMPIONSHIPS’ FINALS COMING TO ESPN3 : For the second time in three years, the finals of the GNAC Basketball Championships on Saturday, March 3, have been selected to be streamed on ESPN3 as part of NCAA Divi-sion II Basketball Showcase. The men’s final will air at 5:15 p.m. (Alaska time) with the women following at 7:30 p.m. This year’s tournament is being held at the Alaska Airlines Center on the campus of the University of Alaska Anchorage. This is also the second set of games this season in which Division II Basket-ball Showcase has featured the GNAC. A doubleheader at Central Washington featuring the Seattle Pacific women and Western Washington aired on February 1. The quarterfinal and semifinal rounds of the GNAC Championships, on Thursday, March 1 and Friday, March 2, will be streamed on the conference’s web stream portal, GNAC.tv, with Rob Lowery and Keaton Homer. The Saturday finals will be streamed exclusively on ESPN3.
