The best games held in GRLC land period will be the Lindenwood Invitational with #1 Colorado State, #5 Michigan, #10 Lindenwood. Can't argue with three top ten teams playing in the midwest. Happens a lot out in the WCLL but dont see it much out here (now that the Nationals are in Dallas).

Another game of extreme interest is the fast rising Illini when they visit BYU. I believe that this will be a televised game (BYU TV) if I heard/read right. That should count since GRLC land can watch the game.

I do not know what the best Division B game will be this year, but their will be a number of teams playing against excellent OOC competition. Here is a list of good OOC teams and the GRLC-B teams they will be playing. The GRLC will have an excellent chance to test themselves this year and show where they stack up as a conference.

I apologize in advance for any games I may have missed...

#2 St. Thomas - Harding, Dordt, & Creighton
#3 St. Johns - Augustana
#17 Southwestern - Augustana, Harding
#19 Pacific Lutheran - Wheaton
#9 Calvin - Wheaton, Harding
#7 Dayton - SLU
(#34)St Edwards - Arkansas, SLU
(#29)Grand Valley State, #23 Ferris State, & Grove City - Wheaton
(#26)Emory - UM-Rolla & SLU
Bethel - Creighton
Carnegie Mellon - Augustana
Carleton - Dordt

The rankings in () are the rankings if you illegitimately expanded the # of votes received to a spot outside the top 25.

Wheaton is playing Pacific Lutheran, that ought to be a good game. I didn't realize Lindenwood was hosting CSU. Thats a big step up for the GRLC. Best of luck!

Matt you also forgot Calvin v St. Thomas at Lindenwood. LU's Div B Invitational puts #2 St. Thomas, #6 Harding and #9 Calvin against eachother Feb 16-18th.

I forgot the dates in my earlier post but the Div A invitational is April 6-8th and features (again) CSU, Michigan and Lindenwood.
