Georgia Southern basketball prepares for Sun Belt Tournament

Amanda Arnold

The Georgia Southern basketball team finished the regular season with an 18-13 record. In the conference, they are currently a fifth seed for the Sun Belt Tournament with a 12-8 record.

This is the first time in several years that the team has not finished with 20+ wins. After Tuesday’s slightly surprising loss to Arkansas State, the team dropped from third to fifth seed. 

On Monday, GS will play host to the winner between Louisiana and Arkansas State, who play this weekend.

GS has defeated Louisiana twice, but only played Ark. State once (which resulted in last night’s one-point loss).

If GS wins on Monday, they will move on to play Georgia State in Atlanta on Wednesday at 6 p.m.

If they defeat GA State, they will play Little Rock next Saturday in New Orleans for the semi-finals and the championship game is next Sunday.
