Eagles face off against 4th-seed Louisiana on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET
STATESBORO - Georgia Southern women's basketball will be the No. 9 seed in the upcoming 2020 Sun Belt Conference Women's Basketball tournament, announced this evening with the reveal of the tournament bracket from the Sun Belt Conference office.
The Eagles will travel to Lafayette, Louisiana, and will take on fourth-seeded Louisiana on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET at the Cajundome. The other two teams the Ragin' Cajuns are hosting - No. 5 seed Little Rock and No. 6-seed Appalachian State - will play at 4 p.m. The winners of both games will then play on Wednesday at 8 p.m., for a berth into the 2020 Sun Belt Women's Basketball Final Four, which will take place in New Orleans on March 14-15.
Georgia Southern advances to the tournament after a year hiatus - the last time the Eagles played in the tournament, it was the 2018 Sun Belt First Round when the then-No. 11-seeded Eagles matched up against No. 6 Louisiana and lost an 88-81 triple overtime decision to the Ragin' Cajuns.
Tickets go on sale from the Cajundome box office on Monday and can be purchased for $10. For more information, contact the box office at 337-265-2170.
