· Yahoo Sports
SUNY New Paltz claimed a share of the SUNY Athletic Conference women's basketball title with a weekend sweep of Plattsburgh and Potsdam, but the Hawks are going to have to wait to see if they will host the postseason tournament.

The Hawks (23-2) topped Plattsburgh 56-44 on Friday and Potsdam 68-48 on Saturday - both on the road - to extend their win streak to 15 games, and pull into a first-place tie with Cortland (22-3) at 17-1 as the regular season came to a close.
Having split their regular-season series, the Hawks and Red Dragons have to wait until Monday to see who gets the top seed and hosting duties for next weekend's SUNYAC Final Four. A higher National Power Index (NPI) will determine the top seed. Through Friday, New Paltz held the No. 22 spot nationally and Cortland was No. 25.
The top SUNYAC seed will host a 5:30 p.m. semifinal on Friday, Feb. 27, facing the winner of Tuesday's quarterfinal matchup between No. 5 seed Oswego and host and No. 4 seed Plattsburgh. The No. 2 seed will play the 7 p.m. Friday semifinal, taking on the Tuesday winner between No. 6 Oneonta and host and No. 3 seed Canton.
The SUNYAC champion receives an automatic berth into the NCAA Division III tournament - New Paltz and Cortland are both in strong position for an at-large berth should they falter.
