Second round stunners Three No. 1 seeds bit the dust in the second round and three No. 5 seeds will play for a spot in the national semifinals. Washington and Jefferson pulled off a second-round upset, along with seventh-seeded Wartburg and fifth-seeded UW-Whitewater, in the NCAA playoffs. The Presidents went down to Jackson, Miss., and took down the "South" bracket's No. 1 in Millsaps, 35-20. The Presidents advance to the Round of Eight to face defending regional champion Mary Hardin-Baylor, which used six turnovers and seven sacks to oust Wesley, 46-14. Nate Kmic set the Division III career rushing record as Mount Union pulled away from Hobart in a 42-7 win. The Purple Raiders will host Cortland State, which ended Curry's run with a 42-0 shutout. Wartburg also won on the road in last-second fashion, scoring with less than 10 seconds left to end Monmouth's playoff run, 30-28. The Knights will travel to UW-Whitewater, which knocked off "West" No. 1 seed Willamette, 30-27.
