NOTE: This is a first in a series of previews leading up to the beginning of fall sports coverage at D-II South Sports. Check back throughout the rest of August for more previews as they become available.
CONFERENCE CHANGES:
Gulf South Conference: While the GSC has no new members, the University of West Georgia will debut its new women's soccer program this season. However, the possibility exists that the University of Central Arkansas, as well as UWG, may join former Peach Belt Conference members Kennesaw State University and the University of North Florida in the NCAA Division I ranks.
Peach Belt Conference: With the departure of Kennesaw State and North Florida, as well as the addition of North Georgia College & State University in Dahlonega, Ga., the PBC now has 10 schools in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. Francis Marion University could become the third school to leave the league within the last two seasons, as its men's golf and women's soccer programs recently earned NCAA approval to move to the NCAA Division I level.
SIAC: The historically black league adds four schools this season, as it welcomes Claflin University (Orangeburg, S.C.), Stillman College (Tuscaloosa, Ala.), Lincoln University (Mo.), and Langston University (Okla.).
