JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 22, 2007) -- On the brink of capturing an outright conference championship and the No. 1 seed in next week's General Shale Brick Atlantic Sun Conference Men's Basketball Championship, ETSU takes on Stetson Thursday evening in a regionally televised game on CSS. Tipoff between the Buccaneers and Hatters is set for 7 p.m. inside Memorial Center.

The Bucs, 20-8 overall, 14-2 in A-Sun play, are winners of 12 of their last 13 games and are looking to end the season on a high note this weekend with wins in their last two regular season games. Meanwhile, Stetson enters the contest having won three straight despite struggling most of the season.

Fans wishing to attend the game are urged to arrive early due to the regional television coverage and the large crowd that is expected with the Bucs trying to win a championship on their home floor.
