Seeds

All 8 teams in the conference participated in the Tournament.

Stetson was ineligible to participate in the NCAA Tournament due to APR violations, but was allowed to participate in the Atlantic Sun Tournament. Had Stetson won the tournament, North Florida would have gone to the NCAA Tournament because of its regular season Atlantic Sun Conference title.

Teams were seeded by record within the conference, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records.
