Conference Hoops Tournament Update

Here's what's happened since the last installment.

Gulf South Conference: Three of the West Division's four representatives advanced to Saturday's semifinal action in the women's bracket at Southaven, Miss. Thursday. West No. 1 seed Arkansas Tech and No. 2 seed Delta State cruised to easy wins, while West No. 3 Harding pulled off the lone upset of the tournament so far, as the Bisons ousted East Division No. 2 seed North Alabama with a 73-66 win. East No. 1 seed Valdosta State was the only team from that division to move on to semifinal, as the Lady Blazers eliminated West No. 4 seed Christian Brothers 64-49. In the first game of men's quarterfinal action Friday, the VSU men joined their female counterparts in advancing to Saturday semifinal action, as the East No. 1 Blazers downed West No. 4 Arkansas-Monticello, 74-61.

Peach Belt Conference: Not much to report here, as all of the action resumes on Saturday afternoon from Aiken, S.C., on the campus of USC Aiken. Should be some good games though. Click here to watch all of the action from the PBC "Final Four" weekend.

SIAC: While the top seed in the women's bracket (Fort Valley State) fell in round two Wednesday, their male counterparts cruised their way into the semis, as No. 1 seed Clark Atlanta crushed No. 9 seed Kentucky State, 78-60. Click here to see how that bracket has developed so far.
