Atlantic Sun Winner 

Mercer: The tournament is in their home arena. Since moving the tournament to Macon in 2010, Mercer has only played in the final once. This could be the year for the Bears. 

Atlantic Sun Runner Up

Florida Gulf Coast: FGCU finished second in the league. If they make it to the final can they handle the pressure on the big stage? 

Atlantic Sun Sleeper Team 

USC Upstate: Preseaosn I had the Spartans winning the A-Sun. I still have faith they could pull it out Torrey Craig and  Ty Greene will have to play at very high level to make a run.
