Central Arkansas won the Southland conference tournament title for the second year in a row. It will be their second NCAA Tournament appearance (27-point loss to Louisville last season). The Sugar Bears won their last 17 games after starting conference play 1-2.
While Louisville's Myisha Hines-Allen keyed a crucial run in the Cardinals' opening-round victory, DePaul's defense shut down James Madison's Jazmon Gwathmey to advance.
