The ACU Wildcats are back in the playoffs for the 3rd straight year, and this year's appearance is a bit of a surprise.

Head coach Chris Thomsen's team lost 3 of it's last 4 games to close the season.

That's not how you want to be playing heading into the playoffs, but they are in the playoffs.

The coach wants to make the best of their 2nd chance at a national title.

ACU lost to Midwestern St. to close the year, and that's who they play on Saturday in the 1st round of the NCAA Division II playoffs.

The Wildcats and the Mustangs kickoff at noon.
