The last time the same team from the GLIAC swept the conference postseason tournament championships was back in 2006.
That team in 2006?
Grand Valley State University.
This past week, the GVSU Men and Women captured their respective GLIAC Tournament Championships with the women holding serve at home, while the men took to the U.P. and grabbed two victories over a pair of U.P. teams in Marquette to take the crown after winning its first tournament contest at home.
Here are the results from the trio of conference tournament games for both squads:
