Voting takes place on the front page of D3hoops.com, starting at noon ET on Tuesday, March 5, and running through noon ET on Thursday, March 7. Fans will be able to choose from a list with the top senior student-athlete in each of the eight Division III regions whose team is no longer participating in the NCAA Tournament. The two with the most votes will join 16 other seniors, two from each region, who were selected by a committee vote, for a total of nine student-athletes per side.
