5/7/2012 (ALBANY) – The Darton College Cavaliers will face East Georgia College in the first round of the GCAA tournament on Friday, at 3:30 p.m., in Covington.

The tournament is scheduled to be webcast live via this link: http://www.gcaa-sports.org/main/news.php?id=205.

The Cavaliers enter the tournament as the No. 3-seed after finishing 1-3 in a series with Georgia Perimeter College, who hosts the GCAA tournament. The Cavs swept No. 6-seed East Georgia College during the regular season.

Darton head coach Scot Hemmings said that although he originally wanted a higher seeding and a first-round bye, he sees the first game with East Georgia as a positive position for the Cavs.

“It will give us a chance to get into tournament mode,” he said. “Sometimes it takes four or five innings to remember that hey – if you get beaten, you go home.”

A win Friday would put Darton up against No. 2-seed Georgia Perimeter, Saturday, at 3:30 p.m.
