Hope High Point can win, so someone from the #336 gets an NCAA Tournament bid.

Looks like this conference will be one that puts a 16 seed in the tournament, I'm not sure if any of these teams could upset a one seed, in a crazy year like this I want to see it happen

Go Winthrop!

Winthrop and High Point had a helluva game last week. Should be the two it comes down to in a great final.

Yeah, I believe that game was on ESPNU.

Hopefully, High Point can take home the Big South. They took out Longwood today by 11.

Would not be opposed to seeing UNC-Asheville winning it either, but would prefer HPU to win. Have to pull for the boys from the Triad.

UNC-Asheville vs Winthrop for the conference title and a ncaa tournament bid

Sucks their best player got injured and couldn't play in the semifinal. I think that's 4 regular season conference championships in a row for High Point, yet couldn't come through in the tournament.

It is. They've never made the NCAA Tournament.

Winthrop looks like a pretty good mid major. Really impressed with their guard play. Could potentially be a dangerous 15/16 seed, I guess about as dangerous as one could be, really.

Congrats goes out to UNCA. They absolutely dominated us in the Quarters so I am happy to see them end it with the Championship. They will surely be a 16 seed, so let's hope they do the conference proud and make history.
