Statement from Demp Bradford, Executive Director of the Asheville Buncombe Regional Sports Commission:

On behalf of the Asheville Buncombe Regional Sports Commission and the Local Organizing Committee, we are excited that the leadership of the Southern Conference chose to keep 2017 Southern Conference Championships in Asheville. We are thankful to Commissioner Iamarino and his staff for their deliberate process over the past week and for coming to Asheville and meeting with our community. Asheville is an open, accepting, diverse community and we look forwarding to welcoming everyone to Asheville in March!!
