A lot of games in the top half of the South Region got postponed on Saturday, but one that was played could be the icing on this week's Top 25 cake.

That game was played in Ashland, Va., where No. 2 Guilford defeated No. 9-and-falling Randolph-Macon 82-73 behind a double-double from Tyler Sanborn, with 26 points and 13 rebounds. The win improved Guilford to 18-1 and was the 14th consecutive victory for the Quakers since a Dec. 5 loss at Virginia Wesleyan. Check out Saturday's men's scores.

Guilford won't have as much competition for No. 1 votes, not after No. 5 UW-Whitewater laid a disastrous egg, losing 95-77 at home to UW-Stout, which improved to 10-9, 5-6 in the WIAC. Whitewater had been in line to move up after winning at top-ranked UW-Stevens Point on Wednesday night.

Earlier on Saturday, Hope led most of the way but had to rally in the final minutes to beat Calvin 67-64 in front of a DeVos Center record 3,665 in Division III's best rivalry. (It's still nearly 8,000 short of the rivalry's record attendance, however.) No. 4 Williams pulled away to win handily at No. 8 Middlebury. Hampden-Sydney got 17 from Turner King and Jonathan Mudd to knock off No. 11 Eastern Mennonite 80-68. The Royals had led by double digits in the first half.

Colby remained in a tie for first place in the NESCAC with Williams and handed Amherst its second loss in less than 24 hours, beating the No. 18 Lord Jeffs 72-68. Christian Van Loenen had the biggest game of his career with 16 points on 6-for-7 shooting with seven assists.

Carthage moved into sole possession of first place in the CCIW with an 80-55 win against No. 21 Illinois Wesleyan. No. 16 William Paterson won its 18th consecutive game, crushing Rowan on the road 85-61. No. 14 MIT completed its NEWMAC season sweep of Worcester Polytech with a 74-66 win. No. 19 Texas-Dallas defeated No. 22 Mississippi College 80-66.

Three weeks ago, Illinois Wesleyan crushed Carthage 76-48 at IWU's Shirk Center, leading wire to wire, putting the game away with a 14-3 run to end the first half and going up by as many as 33.

But back at home on Saturday, No. 20 Carthage turned the tables, knocking off the top-ranked Titans 72-67. Diana Jacklin scored 19 points and pulled down 10 rebounds for the Lady Reds, who improved to 16-3. Saturday's women's scores. For men's coverage, scroll down.

No. 18 Bowdoin rallied from an 11-point halftime deficit to edge Trinity (Conn.) 53-52 as Katie Bergeron put home the go-ahead basket with 45 seconds left. No. 11 Muhlenberg got knocked off Saturday afternoon, falling at Johns Hopkins 73-66. It was the Blue Jays' first win in 11 meetings between the Centennial Conference foes. No. 2 Amherst pulled away in the final 7:23 to blow out Colby on the road 84-63 behind 26 from Carolina Stedman. No. 8 Marymount used a 15-0 run to close the first half and break open a close game, going on to defeat Wesley 62-46.

Trailing by as many as seven during the second half, No. 9 William Paterson scored seven of the final 11 points to get past Rowan 70-67 and improve to 20-1. Edgewood improved to just 9-10 overall, but 9-3 in the Northern Athletics Conference as Shae Beckwith hit a runner with 1.7 seconds left to help the Eagles down Milwaukee School of Engineering 63-61. Mount Union shot just 29 percent for the game and took just its third loss of the season, 66-60 at Wilmington. Wittenberg extended its NCAC lead to two games and completed a regular-season sweep by defeating Ohio Wesleyan 62-56. Mary Hardin-Baylor never trailed in the second half and the Cru rolled to its 11th straight victory with a 68-60 win against Hardin-Simmons in Abilene.
