In the women's bracket, second seeded Harding (21-6) plays No. 3 seed UNA (8-8) in the first match of the regional in Pensacola, Fla., at 10:00 am.

That match will be followed by No. 1 seed West Florida and Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference foe Tuskegee.  Harding and North Alabama clashed in the consolation semifinal of the GSC Tournament with the Lady Bisons posting a 6-1 victory.
