It’s not the postseason tournament Coach Guzzardo wants, but ultimately, for the McNeese program, it is absolutely a step in the right direction.

Tonight, the women's team will take on Texas A&M in the WBIT for their first postseason appearance since 2016.

#McNeese was affected by a major college basketball point-shaving scandal, but no players or staff at the school are accused of wrongdoing.

There are a total of 5 players who are associated with Louisiana colleges that are included in the federal indictments.

McNeese was also affected by a February 2024 game against Nicholls.

Here's a little more context on the February 2024 game between #McNeese and Nicholls, where MAJOR wages were placed with Colonels players ensuing the spread was covered.

This is from the indictment.
