The 38th Annual Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Tournament will begin Tuesday March 10th and will come to a conclusion Saturday March 14th. The Morgan State Bears showed their dominance in league play, earning the top spot in the tournament with a 13-3 mark. It is the second consecutive regular- season title for the Bears, who finished with an impressive overall ledger of 20-11. However, Morgan State has not enjoyed much success in this event, winning the title just once, way back in 1977.
Looking to keep the Bears from capturing that long overdue title will be the South Carolina State Bulldogs, who finished the regular-season with a 10-6 mark and the second seed. After Morgan State and SC State there was a log jam in the conference standings, as four teams finished with a 9-7 record. Norfolk State rose above the other 9-7 teams thanks to a three-game win streak down the stretch, including a season-finale victory over North Carolina A&T. The Spartans, who have never won this event, are now the third seed and will also elude opening round action.
