Analysis: After losing last season's South Regional final to North Alabama, the Benedict Tigers (28-5 in 2007-08) hope to take the next step, and advance to the NCAA Division II Elite Eight this season. But their biggest challenge to repeating as both SIAC regular season and tournament champions, respectively, might come a few miles down the road in Orangeburg, S.C. That's where the newcomer Claflin University Panthers are located, as they begin their first season in the SIAC. The Panthers, though, aren't the typical newcomers to a brand-new conference, as they finished 24-2 last season.
