Coastal Carolina seniors Jaylen Shaw, Demario Beck and Jas Adams have a last chance this week to prolong their college careers.
The Coastal Carolina men’s and women’s teams begin the Sun Belt Conference Basketball Tournament as the higher seeds in their opening-round games, but will need to pull some upsets to earn the automatic NCAA Tournament berths from the conference.
The CCU women (16-13, 10-8) won five of their last six games, including the last two, to earn the seventh seed in the tournament and had an opening-round game scheduled for 6 p.m. (Eastern) Tuesday at Lakefront Arena in New Orleans against 10th-seeded Georgia State (8-21, 4-14).
