Theoretical question. Not sure if anyone has thought about this, but say a kid gets a COVID test on Wednesday, gets results on Thursday and they’re negative. If their team makes it to Sunday do they need to test again or will that negative take them through the Championship game?? I know no one probably has that answer, but just a thought.

The Covid protocols were not devised with a 4-day event in mind. So there may not be an answer to that question.
It was also discussed in this thread-
https://www.bradleyfans.com/forum/sp...d-requirements

I can't believe they will require a second negative Covid test if someone attends each session, but their Covid page does not address that possibility.

For the record, I’ve tried every method under the sun to try to get some clarity from the Enterprise Center but have not had any responses other than other numbers or emails to contact, all with no luck.

Still going!
 
Our road to the championship will be no cake walk, but I’d love to be the team to send Loyola packing as they leave the conference.

Yes, it'll be really tough. If Bradley wins and advances, and the other games play out as expected, Bradley would have to beat Loyola, UNI, and either Drake or Missouri State. I believe it can be done. Bradley has beaten Loyola, Drake (twice), and UNI this season. And they played well against MSU in Peoria.
 
I think the top 6 seeds can win Arch Madness. No one is infallible but each team has a guy who can take over a game. Taking care of the ball has to be the #1 priority as all 6 teams can get after it on defense. I expect close games so better make FT's and you can't give up 2nd and 3rd chances. And as much as I hate to say it how the refs call each game could be a deciding factor. So looking forward to seeing it in person.

The Tournament Central website (https://mvc-sports.com/feature/22Arch) will have the schedule and links to Live Stats, box scores, and other useful sites.
However, it looks like it has not been updated yet and still shows just the generic bracket and schedule with no teams filled in-

Here are the final NET ranks for the MVC teams-

Bradley's NET is better than regular season champ UNI.
 
Is Friday’s game on TV?

The Thursday and Friday games are on the MVC-TV Network, which includes NBCSports Chicago and Bally Sports St. Louis.
The TV info for each game is always listed on the Bradley schedule page -
https://bradleybraves.com/sports/men...tball/schedule

We also always have TV info here on Bradleyfans-

Tickets are available from Ticketmaster (not a very good selection)-
https://www.ticketmaster.com/state-.../event/06005C3191111388?refArtist=K8vZ91742Qf

And there may still be some tickets available through the Bradley ticket office in the assigned Bradley section-
Contact [email protected] or call (309) 677-2625
 
Also, have sections been determined yet?

I have done some digging and I am told by a usually reliable source that the Bradley sections includes section 113, and mid & upper rows of 114 and 115. The team benches are behind sections 102 & 104.

You'd think the MVC or the Bradley website would post the team section info, but they don't.
I can find any mention of Arch Madness individual game tickets anywhere on the Bradley website. :roll:

I agree Tommy, that would be the way to send the Ramblers packing. This is the most wide open tournament that I can remember. Anyone of the top 6 can wind this tournament and any team but, probably, Evansville could pull off an upset in any one of the games. Both ISU's have either beaten or played neck and neck with at least 2 of the top teams and, I believe, Valpo has hung tough with some of the top 6 teams and even beat Northern Iowa.
This should be a fun tournament and some outstanding games.
Let's all be there Sunday afternoon to celebrate when we go dancing again. Already looking forward to watching this team the next 2 years and beyond..

nice! I blindly bought seats in Section 114 last night. We’re good.
 
People who purchased all session tickets through Bradley will be sent them via the e-mail address they have on file with the ticket office by 8:00 PM Monday. People must have a registered Enterprise Center Ticketmaster account with that e-mail on file. You'll be prompted to do so if you don't have one. Once you're registered you'll be able to access your tickets via the GO Braves App or the Arch Madness App.
 
Finally got a response from the Enterprise Center regarding their rules on COVID:

Thanks for reaching out and I hope this answers your question. We do not offer religious exemptions to our policy. Our current policy is vaccine or a test. We would accept a saliva test as an alternative to a nasal swab test. Also, any person with a test taken after 1pm on Thursday 3/6 would only have to test once for the weekend, as 72hrs from that time would get them in for the 1pm game on Sunday.

Think it's preposterous that private companies are allowed to do this. What's next, test us for STD's and the flu? Ah well, don't mind me, I'm just an American that remembers the country before 'public safety' became synonymous with 'the government and private industry can collude to do whatever they want'. And before you ask me why I'm so upset, ask yourself at what point is it an infringement on your personal liberties (a word that means nothing anymore)? Because the more we acquiesce, the more they will continue to force things down our throat until we can only go where they want when they want and do what they want us to do.

Yes, I am not happy about this at all.

Exactly a private company on private property. They can ask you to do whatever. In there mind you don't have to go if you don't like it. It's not a problem however if you are vaccinated I don't believe you have to test before right?
