BURN THE HORSE
Most of the teams have arrived or are in the process of arriving in Hot Springs for the Sun Belt Tournament. UALR isn't one of them.  |
| UALR vs. South Alabama 9 p.m. Saturday Hot Springs Convention Center |
As they've done the previous two times the tournament has been held here, UALR is staying at home and sleeping in their own beds. The Trojans will go through shoot-around tomorrow afternoon at the Jack Stephens Center and will eat their pregame meal in Little Rock. They'll depart Saturday evening for the game, which begins at 9 p.m.
Meanwhile charter buses of all colors are rolling through the streets of Hot Springs. Judging by the Twitter accounts of league players bored on their bus trips, the only teams flying in are Denver, Florida Atlantic and Florida International.
The Sun Belt's Drive to the Summit gets under way at 11 a.m. on Saturday morning. Children will dribble basketballs in a parade through the streets of Hot Springs. In the event of rainy weather, they'll move the event indoors to the Hot Springs Convention Center.
