Like the old saying goes, it might be late, but better late than never, as D-II South Sports has the first of multiple installments of its 2006-2007 basketball preview. Leading things off are the women's teams in the Gulf South Conference.
Predicted order of finish is courtesy of the Gulf South Conference
Valdosta State: After finishing 18-10 last season, and falling to Henderson State in the quarterfinals of the Gulf South Conference tournament, the Lady Blazers hope to return to the top of the GSC East this year. The VSU women will be tested early and often, as they face squads such as Nova Southeastern, Florida Gulf Coast, Clayton State, and Bowie State in the pre-conference schedule.
Alabama-Huntsville: The Lady Chargers hope to take another step towards being one of the conference's elite programs after a 14-13 overall, and 9-5 finish in GSC East action last season. UAH saw its season end with an embarassing 52-28 loss to Delta State in the GSC tournament.
West Florida: The Lady Argonauts look to make a return trip to the NCAA Division II tournament after finishing 23-7 last season, falling to Henderson State in the South regional semifinal. But they'll have to do it with the multitude of seniors that got them there now having graduated.
West Georgia: After finishing 19-10 in their final season as the Braves, the UWG women will begin their first season as the Wolves.
West Alabama: The Lady Tigers hope to improve on a disappointing 13-16 record, which included a 7-7 mark in GSC East games.
North Alabama: The Lady Lions have nowhere to go but up after a dismal 5-22 finish last season.
Montevallo: The Falcons also find themselves fighting an uphill battle after finishing 7-20 a year ago, tied with UNA, and former GSC member Lincoln Memorial for last place in the East Division at 3-11.
