UC Clermont Basketball Teams Receive USCAA National Tournament Bids
The UC Clermont College mens and womens basketball teams each earned bids today to the 2011 United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) National Championship Tournament being held from March 1-5 on the campus of Penn State Fayette in Uniontown, Penn.
The men will be making their sixth consecutive appearance while the women will be making their fourth appearance in a row. Congratulations and good luck to both teams in Uniontown, said Brian Sullivan, athletic director at UC Clermont College.
The bids top off an already good week for the teams. On Wednesday, the Cougars walked away with a lot of hardware at the Ohio Collegiate Athletic Conference awards banquet held at Southern State.
