PC men’s basketball picked second in Big South poll

Presbyterian College men’s basketball was selected second in the Big South preseason coaches’ poll.

What the poll says

The Big South poll places Presbyterian College second among the conference’s men’s basketball teams in the coaches’ preseason assessment. The ranking reflects how conference coaches evaluated the teams before the season.

What it means

A preseason poll is not a game result. It does not award a win, loss or conference standing. Instead, it provides a projected order for the teams before regular-season play.

Presbyterian College’s second-place selection gives the Blue Hose a preseason position near the top of the Big South. The poll itself does not determine the conference champion.

What comes next

The team’s place in the final conference standings will be determined by its games during the season. Those results, rather than the preseason poll, will decide the competitive order in the Big South.
