College Basketball Championship Week: 3/5 results, 3/6 schedule - Yale, Austin Peay go dancing

Yesterday's Men's Results

Samford went an unsightly 0-14 from beyond the arc, but on the other hand they were 20-23 from the stripe. All of that added up to coming up just short of knocking off the top-seeded Chattanooga Mocs in the SoCon quarters.

Over in the Horizon League, Carrington Love had seven steals for Wisconsin-Green Bay, a Horizon tournament record, as the Phoenix advanced to the second round. They'll face their eternal nemeses, Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Two top seeds fell last night. High Point was easily dispatched by fourth-seeded UNC-Asheville in the Big South semis, but Wichita State put up a hell of a fight before succumbing to fourth-seeded Northern Iowa in the Missouri Valley semifinals. In another SoCon quarter, Western Carolina needed two overtimes to score a mild 5-4 upset over Wofford.

Other than that, it was mostly business as usual with the exception of a few other 5-4 upsets. Here's the full results from yesterday; as is our custom, links in green are to recaps provided by our sister SB Nation sites.

Yesterday's Women's Results

The first automatic bid to the women's NCAA tournament went out last night as well, also in the Ohio Valley. Belmont shredded Eastern Kentucky behind 23 points from Sally McCabe to grab the first invitation. But Cinderella took a tumble yesterday, as both California and Northwestern saw their double-digit seed runs ended. Indeed, yesterday's action was pretty boring if you're into upsets; not one single team lost to an opponent seeded more than one place below them all day. The full results:

Today's Men's Schedule

No conferences begin action today, but a few end it. Tonight, we'll find out who will claim the automatic bids in the Atlantic Sun, Big South, and Missouri Valley. (Of course, in the A-Sun, we may see a team that's not even playing tonight earn that bid...) We'll also see if the dreams Army and William & Mary have of finally reaching the NCAA Tournament stay alive, and everyone is hoping for no upsets in the MAAC tonight so we get Monmouth-Iona round three. Today's schedule:

Today's Women's Schedule

It's the big day for the women, as five major conferences -- the A-10, ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12, and SEC -- all determine their champions, as does the SoCon. Meanwhile, the NEC enters the fray finally, and we get major semis in the American and Big 12.
