Gulf South Conference - Basketball

Gulf South Conference Basketball is the men’s and women’s basketball competition administered by the Gulf South Conference (GSC), a charter NCAA Division II conference headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama. The conference’s official platform publishes schedules, standings, results, championship coverage, broadcasts and news. The 2026 men’s championship was won by West Florida, which defeated top-seeded West Alabama 76–69 to secure the conference’s automatic NCAA Division II tournament berth. For 2026–27, the GSC uses a 20-game double round-robin conference schedule played over 12 weeks; the top eight teams in each standing qualify for home-court quarterfinals on 1 March 2027, followed by higher-seed-hosted semifinals on 4 March and finals on 7 March. This profile concerns the GSC basketball organiser and its championships, not an individual member university, a different Gulf South entity or another league.
