RIVERSIDE, Calif. --- The National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) has released the 2012 Women's Basketball Championship seeds and bracket, and California Baptist University was named the top seed.

The Lancers represent the west region in the eight team national championship and will take on eighth seeded Colorado Christian in the opening round.

The NCCAA Championship will be held March 14-17 in Winona Lake, Ind. at host and fifth seeded Grace College.

CBU enters the tournament with the best record in the field at 21-5 and has been in the Top 5 of the NCCAA Burbridge rankings all season.

Colorado Christian enters the tournament with a 15-15 record, having won the central region to earn the berth. The Cougars are 21st in the Burbridge rankings.

The Lancers and Cougars have never met.

Play begins at 8:30 a.m. on March 14 with bracket scheduling yet to be determined.

CBU has played in the NCCAA National Tournament once before in the program's 36 year history. CBU fell to Marion in the 1986 tournament.

The Lancers renewed their dual affiliation with the NCCAA this season as they transition to NCAA Division II and are currently ineligible for championship play.
