2012-13 GLIAC Men’s Basketball Preview

By Sandy Gholston, Special Writer for the GLIAC

BAY CITY, Mich. – Teams should not expect any easy nights in Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) men’s basketball competition this season – in the North or South divisions.

Findlay and Hillsdale have battled for South Division supremacy in recent years and appear destined to battle it out again for the top spot. In the North Division, the race should be competitive with the addition of Wayne State to the trio of Ferris State, Michigan Tech, and Northwood that tied for the Division title last season.
