Atlantic Sun Basketball: 2021 Conference Tournament preview, predictions
By David Mullen
Semifinals
Friday, March 5th GAME 5: #1 Liberty vs. #7 Stetson
Although Stetson may have enjoyed a solid game against Bellarmine in the first round, they will not experience it again. Liberty is more talented, better developed, and has more experience than Stetson and Bellarmine combined. The Flames, although they should not write this game off, will win handily.
Liberty 89, Stetson 69
Friday, March 5th GAME 6: #3 Lipscomb vs. #4 North Florida
The drop off from the top three teams in the conference and the rest is dramatic. North Florida, although having a solid season, will see their dreams end when Lipscomb advances to the championship game.
Lipscomb 71, North Florida 65
Finals
Saturday, March 6th GAME 7: #1 Liberty vs. #3 Lipscomb
Liberty has too much firepower throughout their lineup for Lipscomb. Ahsan Asadullah knows this is his time to shine. Asadullah and Romeao Ferguson will have a great game and lead Liberty to the Atlantic Sun conference championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance.
