PEACH BELT CONFERENCE BASEBALL TOURNAMENT

PEACH BELT CONFERENCE BASEBALL TOURNAMENT--at Aiken, SC--May 11-14

Thursday's games--All Times EDT

#1 GC&SU vs. #6 USC Upstate--11 a.m.

#2 Francis Marion vs. #5 Armstrong Atlantic--3 p.m.

#3 Columbus State vs. #6 USC Aiken--7 p.m.

Analysis: With five of the six teams currently ranked in the most recent Collegiate Baseball NCAA Division II national poll (GC&SU #1, FMU #5, CSU #15, USCA #16, and AASU #23), and a sixth team (Upstate) also receiving votes, this should be a very competitive tournament. Also, it doesn't hurt that seven of the nine teams in the latest South Atlantic Regional poll also call the PBC home, with five of those aforementioned squads (GC&SU, FMU, AASU, CSU, and USCA) ranked one through five respectively. It's too bad at least one of those teams may end up being left out of the NCAA tournament field come next weekend.
