Raptors Earn No. 7 Seed in Region XX DII Men's Basketball Tournament

The Montgomery College Raptors will represent the No. 7 seed in this year's Region XX DII Men's Basketball Tournament with an overall record of 13-12 and 5-5 against Division II regional opponents. The Tournament will be hosted at Cecil College in North East, Md. March 8-10.

The Raptors will face a familiar opponent in the #2 seed Community College of Beaver County Titans (22-3/ 7-2) in the quarter finals on Friday, March 8th at 6pm.

Twenty-seven days will sperate the Raptors' last game of the regular season and their first game of the post-season, and the same amount of time separate the last time these two teams faced off against one another. In their last meeting, Beaver County was able to hold off the Raptors to win by three points, but Coach Byrd and his team look to produce a different outcome in the post season where the stakes are much higher.  The winner will advance to play in semi-final game on Saturday March 9th at 6pm and the other team will exit the tournament.
