It's getting to the point in the season where conference championships get decided and there is a team in each league around the region that can prepare to hang a new banner with a win this weekend.
Winona State in the NSIC, North Dakota in the NCC, and Grand Valley State in the GLIAC can all guarantee themselves at least a share of their respective league titles with a win. Central Washington can do even better-- the Wildcats can capture the final GNAC championship outright with a second win this season over rival Western Washington.

Even if your team's conference title hopes look dim, there is still plenty to play for. By my estimation, there are 13 teams with at least an outside shot at capturing one of the region's six playoff berths. Other teams can work on finishing the season over .500 or spoiling someone else's playoff hopes or sending out the senior class with a win. Everybody should have at least a few goals to shoot for as we near the end of the regular season.
