Buccaneers battle Dolphins for Atlantic Sun Tournament title

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/07/2009 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The title game of the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament is set to take place in Nashville, as the top-seeded Jacksonville Dolphins will take on the second-seeded East Tennessee Buccaneers as expected. Awarded to the winner of this clash will be a trip to the NCAA Tournament.

Only two of the current members of the Atlantic Sun have ever won the league tournament, and our two participants in tonight's championship game are still in search of their first crown.

East Tennessee State beat Stetson in the first round and Belmont in last night's semifinal round, and both of those victories came by 14 points. The Bucs are 22-10 overall and ended Belmont's three-year run of Atlantic Sun titles.

As for Jacksonville, it rolled to an 88-72 decision over Lipscomb on Friday. The Dolphins lost to Belmont in the title game a year ago and hope for a better outcome tonight.

East Tennessee State owns a 5-4 series edge over Jacksonville, and the two teams split a pair of meetings during the regular season.

Senior guard Courtney Pigram stole the show for East Tennessee State last night, as the standout poured in 30 points to pace the Bucs. He eclipsed the 2,000-point mark for his career and is now the third-leading scorer in program history. Kevin Tiggs tallied 21 points for ETSU against Belmont, and Mike Smith posted 19 points. Adding further balance to the lineup was Tommy Hubbard with 10 points for the Bucs, who earned a 38-30 rebounding advantage and a 26-11 edge in points from the foul line. Overall this season, Pigram is scoring 17.9 ppg to go along with 131 assists and 55 steals. As for Smith, he checks in with 15.3 ppg and 7.6 rpg. They both take a back seat to Tiggs, however, who is pouring in 21.5 ppg on 53.9 percent shooting from he floor. Thanks mostly to the efforts of those three players, ETSU is scoring 78.4 ppg.

All five starters for Jacksonville reached double figures in scoring in the victory over Lipscomb last night. Lehmon Colbert led the way with 20 points, and Ben Smith pitched in 19 points. Ayron Hardy and Marcus Allen added 12 points apiece, while Travis Cohn pitched in 11 points. The Dolphins only turned the ball over six times and earned a 43-31 rebounding advantage. They also grabbed an 18-9 edge in points from the foul line. Smith is the team's leading scorer with 16.8 ppg, and he has dished out 120 assists. Colbert posts 12.1 ppg, while Hardy and Allen pitch in 10.2 ppg apiece. The Dolphins are scoring 74.4 ppg while allowing 68.0 ppg, and they own the same exact field goal percentage as their opponents (.451).
