NOTE: Our fall sports outlook begins in earnest with a preview of women's volleyball action. First up, a look at the Gulf South Conference East Division.
1. North Alabama--It's hard not to pick to against the Lions as the top team in the GSC East. In fact, UNA has won eight of the last nine GSC titles, not to mention a national championship in 2003. Like it or not, this is the team to beat until another squad proves otherwise.
2. Alabama-Huntsville--One of the more consistent programs in the league year-in and year-out, the Lady Chargers hope to break UNA's strangehold on the GSC East.
3. West Georgia--After going 24-9 last season, and advancing to the GSC tournament for the first time since 1998, the Braves look to take the next step, and advance to the NCAA tournament. But they must do it with a new head coach in Regan Adams.
4. West Florida--The Argonauts hope to bounce back after having its season cancelled due to Hurricane Ivan. UWF had a 5-7 record when the 2004 campaign was called due to severe weather damage.
5. Lincoln Memorial--The Railsplitters hope to improve on last year's 23-8 record, which also included a 7-5 mark in GSC East play, as well as a trip to the conference tournament.
6. West Alabama--The Tigers hope to bounce back after a disappointing 7-24 season.
7. Montevallo--The Falcons also struggled last season, going 9-17 overall.
8. Valdosta State--While the football program is trying to defend a national championship, new head coach Sia Poyer looks to rebuild a Lady Blazer volleyball program that has managed just four wins over the last two years, none in GSC play.
