This edition of the HL “check in” comes smack dab in the middle of a whirlwind tour of the Horizon League. Loyola to Cleveland State to Butler to Valparaiso…four games in six days, all in an effort to sew up my notes on as many teams as possible heading into the Horizon League Championship, which begins on March 3rd. Some things are already crystal clear while others remain murky, much like the weather we deal with here in the Midwest this time of year. Two weeks ago it was snow measured in feet and this week it’s been unseasonable warmth, followed by wind and rain. It’s a nice sign that March is right around the corner, but for now the return of the winter chill is a reminder that this time of year features “Mock Selection Thursday” and not “Selection Sunday.”
