It was right back to work for the Miles College Lady Bears after capturing their first Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) in Savannah, Georgia.
The eighth-seeded team began preparations to face top-seeded Valdosta State in the first round of the NCAA Division II South Region Tournament.
“They had a day off to enjoy the win, but it back to work today,” said Head Coach Pete Asmond.

The Lady Bears set several goals at the start of the season. “Winning 20 games, winning all of our home games, and holding opponents to 60 points a game,” said Asmond.
Miles finished 23-6, 14-1 at home and earned an automatic bid to the NCAA Division II Tournament.
Asmond has been with the team since 2018 and previously coached under Miles’ men basketball head coach, Fred Watson.
