Blazers to host West Alabama in second round Saturday

VALDOSTA — The first round of the Division II football playoffs are complete and Valdosta State knows who it will be hosting in the second round Saturday at noon.

The Blazers (8-2) will host the West Alabama Tigers (9-3) for the second time this season after the Tigers beat Miles 42-7 Saturday afternoon in Livingston, Ala. West Alabama beat Valdosta State 39-28 earlier this season, handing the Blazers' their only Gulf South Conference loss this season.

Lenoir-Rhyne beat Fort Valley State Saturday and will play at Carson-Newman Saturday in Super Region 2 action.

Will have more on the VSU-UWA game throughout the week.
