CIAA 2009-2010 Basketball Season Begins: Preseason All-Conference and Predicted Order of Finish Announced
October 8, 2009
Charlotte, NC...The Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association held its 2009-2010 Basketball Press Conference today at the Charlotte Convention Center. The conference was also available for viewing live via the CIAA website, www.TheCIAA.com, courtesy of the Fayetteville State Sports Information Department.
Today's meeting included the release of the Preseason All-CIAA Team, as selected by the Basketball Coaches Association and the announcement of the Predicted Order of Finish, also determined by that group. Both of this year's squads include a player from nearly every team, showing that this year's competition will be fairly intense across the conference.
The season is one month away, and the conference championship title is any team's for the taking!
