Tune in to see CUSA conference champion be named on Saturday when the No. 1 seed Liberty Flames (27-6, 13-5 CUSA) and the No. 2 Jacksonville State Gamecocks (22-11, 12-6 CUSA) meet at 8:30 p.m.

Liberty did not have the greatest shooting performance, just 30 percent. But defensively they did enough to affect change while Bella Smuda and Emma Hess combined for 24 points. Smuda recorded a double-double, 10 and 13. The Flames built a 41-30 lead towards the end of the third quarter.
