 Arkansas Baptist Captures 2026 CAC Men's Basketball Championship-Mar 2, 2026
Arkansas Baptist College put together a potent late stretch to pull away from Georgia Gwinnett College for an 82-78 victory on Sunday to capture the 2026 Continental Athletic Conference Men's Basketball Championship following four exciting days of action on the court at GGC's Convocation Center. Arkansas Baptist (18-9) and GGC (25-6) will now represent the CAC in the NAIA national tournament. The NAIA's First and Second Round tournament assignments will be announced on Thursday, March 5. In a game that features numerous offensive streaks by both teams, it was the No. 2-seeded Buffaloes that outscored the tournament hosts by an 8-4 margin across the final 2:18 to break away from a 74-74 tie to take home the four-point victory. Javion Johnson (6'5''-F) started the Buffaloes' late rally with a three-point play, on a layup and free throw, after a steal. Treylon Swayzer (6'3''-G) followed with tip-in, LeQuan Washington (6'4''-G) had a layup and Tray'von Thomas (6'2''-G) made a free throw to account for the team's late eight-point offensive spurt. GGC had opened the second half aggressively, getting a three-point play on a dunk and free throw from Javion Johnson, a 3-point field goal by Jahiem Berry (6'1''-G), and a layup from Deonte Martinez (5'9''-PG) in the first two minutes to take a 10-point edge, at 46-36. However, Arkansas Baptist answered with a 10-0 offensive run of its own, getting layups from Christopher Hood (6'4''-G) and Thomas, a dunk from Timothy Palmar, and a layup from Ty'Reonn King (6'2''-G) to tie the game at 46-46 with 15:02 remaining in the game. The lead switched hands several times and no team opened more than a four-point advantage before the final decisive 2:18 stretch of the game. The Buffaloes came out strong in the contest, making three of their first six shots - all 3-pointers. They ended up making six of their 14 long-range field goals (shooting 42 percent). Johnson had a game-high 19 points to lead four double-digit scorers that carried Arkansas Baptist to the championship. Washington followed closely with 18 points, King had 16 points (on 3-for-4 from 3-point range) and Hood added 11 points. King was named the Most Outstanding Player of the CAC Championship tournament. He was joined by teammates Swayzer and Washington on the all-tournament team. CAC Player of the Year Devontre Chaney (6'5''-G/F) carried GGC offensively with 17 points, while Martinez had 13 points and Mario Hill Jr. added 10 points. Chaney and Hill Jr. were named to the all-tournament team.
