RICHMOND, Va. - The College of Charleston men's basketball team has earned the No. 2 seed in the upcoming 2023 Jersey Mike's CAA Championship, which begins Friday at the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Washington.

The Cougars finished the regular season with a 16-2 conference record. Hofstra's 16-2 matching record and head-to-head win over 16-2 Charleston earned the Pride the No. 1 seed and placed the Cougars at No. 2. Hofstra and Charleston are the first duo of CAA teams to both reach 16 conference wins in the same season; only three CAA teams had achieved 16-2 regular season conference records prior to this season. Both teams earned a share of the regular season title.

Charleston will get the evening session started Sunday with a game at 6:00 p.m. on FloSports against the winner of No. 7 North Carolina A&T and No. 10 Stony Brook. The Cougars, who enter the Championship with a nation-leading 28 wins, won their only matchups of the year against the duo of CAA newcomers. The team enters Washington on seven game winning streak, beating their opponents by an average of 24 points per game throughout the stretch. 

The winner of Sunday's contest will advance to Monday's semifinal at 8:30 p.m. The final four match-up will be broadcast on CBS Sports Network.
