Pairings Announced For Food Lion SAC Softball Tournament
ROCK HILL, S.C. - Presbyterian enters the 2007 Food Lion
SAC Softball Tournament as the fourth seed and will host
fifth-seeded Catawba in the opening round of the event at
9:30 a.m. on Thursday, April 19 at the PC Softball Complex.
The game will mark the opening of the tournament.
The Lady Blue Hose ended the 2007 regular season at 29-14.
Both PC and Catawba finished league play with an identical
7-7 mark, but the Lady Blue Hose swept Catawba in a home
doubleheader in March to acquire the fourth seed.
The Lenoir-Rhyne Bears, ranked 17th in the last week's
National Fastpitch Coaches Division II national poll, are
the top seed for the 2007 Food Lion South Atlantic
Conference Softball Tournament.
Newberry and Mars Hill tied for sixth in the regular season
standings. The two teams split their regular-season meeting,
and both teams split against top seed Lenoir-Rhyne. Newberry
earned the sixth seed by virtue of its one win against
second seed Carson-Newman, while Mars Hill lost both
meetings against Carson-Newman.
Carson-Newman and Wingate tied for second place in the
regular season standings with 8-6 conference records. The
Lady Eagles earned the second seed with their season sweep
over Wingate.
