Wheaton, Ill. (11/17) - The NCAA announced

pairings for its Division III Football playoffs this afternoon. Wheaton will

travel to Alma College next Saturday afternoon at noon eastern time. Wheaton

comes in with a 9-1 record and automatically qualified for the playoffs as

the CCIW Champion. Alma is 9-1 this season and was a Pool B candidate after

winning the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which does not

receive an automatic bid. This is Wheaton's second appearance in the NCAA

Division III Playoffs, with the other trip to the postseason coming in 1995.

The two teams met earlier in the season with Alma topping Wheaton 23-16 on

the Scots' homefield.
