Believe it or not, hosting the conference tournament has not benefited the host team. Never has the host of the HCAC conference tournament, won it. We call it; a curse. My freshman year in college we came in second place in the final conference standings. Transylvania came in first, giving them the right to host the tournament. Transylvania went 2 games and out of the tournament. We, however won 3 straight games , won the tournament, and went on to the regional tournament.
Last year, we hosted the tournament after coming in first place in the regular season. Just as Transy did the previous season, we went 2 games and out, and were held out of advancing to the regional tournament.
It will be up to us this year, to make sure that the "curse" lives on so that Franklin will not win the tournament.
