The Storm entered the season with post-season aspirations. He says they set their goals high and had to regroup after losing two to Wartburg in the middle of the season, and now they can achieve their goal.Host Illinois Wesleyan is the top seed in a regional which includes Aurora of Illinois, Carthage College and Blackburn.
