Everything you need to know and more about the 2016 Atlantic Sun basketball tournament.
It’s March, a time for Cinderellas and broken hearts. The time of year when eyes turn toward the hardwood for a bevy of conference tournaments.
For some conferences, like the Atlantic Sun, the tournament likely presents the only chance for a team to make it to the Big Dance. From there, it’s all up to the roundball gods.
Recent history has proven kind to the Atlantic Sun’s representatives during March Madness. In 2014 the Belmont Bears Nae-Nae’d all over Duke in a monumental Round of 64 upset. The year prior, Andy Enfield’s Florida Gulf Coast squad dunked all over the field in a run to the Sweet 16.
