Lincoln Memorial To Face Anderson In NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament
March 6, 2011

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- The 2011 NCAA Division II Men's Basketball Championship Committee announced the brackets for the Southeast Regional Sunday, and the Lincoln Memorial University men's basketball team will make their NCAA Tournament debut as a two-seed. They will face seventh-seed and South Atlantic Conference foe Anderson University next weekend.

The schools will be notified of the game time sometime on Monday.

Augusta State is the top seed and will host the regional. They will face eighth-seed UNC-Pembroke in a re-match of Sunday's Peach Belt Conference Tournament Championship, which ASU won.

LMU earned the South Atlantic Conference's automatic bid with the 68-58 win over Wingate earlier Sunday. It will be the Railsplitters' first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament. Anderson is one of only two teams to defeat the Railsplitters this season.

The third seed was Georgia Southwestern, who will face sixth-seeded Montevallo. Queens University of Charlotte (4th seed) and Limestone (5th) round out the regional field.
