Box Score 3 NEWBERRY, S.C. - After a disappointing series sweep Friday and Saturday at Lenoir-Rhyne, the Indians have completed all of their regular season contests except two, which will fall after the 2006 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Tournament this weekend in Greeneville, Tenn.
Newberry will enter the tournament as the eighth seed and will face Catawba College in a first-round matchup at Pioneer Park. Catawba and Tusculum, the host school, finish with identical 17-4 conference records, but the Indians earned the tiebreaker by virtue of winning the head-to-head series with the Pioneers.
