No. 16 WKU rallies to top No. 16 Miss Valley St. in the first 2012 tournament game, 59-58

March is most definitely a new season, just ask the WKU Hilltoppers. Entering the tournament with a 15-18 record, the Hilltoppers topped the Miss Valley St. Delta Devils after a furious rally in Dayton. Both teams came out flat in the first half, but the Delta Devils jumped to a double digit lead, but the Hilltoppers would come back and escape with a one point victory to force a match up with another instate school, the No. 1 seeded Kentucky Wildcats.
