Maryville realized its season-long Drive for Five, forcing a tiebreaker decision from the Collegiate Conference of the South after going into Belhaven's gym Friday night and producing a hard-fought 77-72 victory. Belhaven on its way to 11-0 in league play had knocked off the Scots 91-83 in Maryville on Jan. 25.
Maryville with the victory pockets a fifth consecutive regular season conference championship – the Drive for Five. The Scots reach 20 wins for the second straight year and the third time in four seasons since Covid. And MC finishes 11-1 in conference play and improves to 32-4 in three regular seasons against the CCS, 36-4 counting the postseason.
Asbury defeated Covenant Wednesday afternoon in the tournament quarterfinals to advance to face #1 seed Maryville. The Eagles' game against Covenant, originally starting Tuesday night, was delayed in the first half due to a city-wide power outage in Wilmore, resulting in the game being pushed to restart Wednesday morning. Asbury comes in to the game having won two in-a-row, both against Covenant. The Scots defeated the Eagles both times they played in the regular season, with Maryville winning at home 100-61 and at Asbury 89-70.
The winner will advance to the CCS Championship game Saturday at 3 p.m. against the winner of Belhaven and Huntingdon, which takes place today at 5 p.m., also in Cooper.
