We Have Our First Auto Bid

The Cornell Big Red got 25 points from Ryan Wittman as they clinched their second straight Ivy League regular season title. The Ivy League is the only league that doesn't have a conference tournament.

It will be the second straight season that Cornell is dancing, and just the fourth time in the program's 110-year history. Cornell came into this season with a bunch of injury questions, as reigning Ivy POY Louis Dale missed a good chunk of the season and Adam Gore, another starter, tore his acl during the offseason and is still not back to where he was.

But Ryan Wittman has had a great year for the school in Ithaca, NY, averaging 18.5 ppg, and Dale, once he returned, was as good as advertised.

Long story short, Cornell back in the dance. We can officially start slotting in auto bids with the Big Red.
