WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - For the first time since 2007, the Lycoming College women's basketball team will take on former Freedom Conference foe DeSales University tonight in the season-opening in the Morgan Stanley Tip-Off Tournament.

The Warriors, who moved to the Commonwealth Conference after the 2007 season, earned a spot in the conference playoffs for the first time in 2013 after posting an 8-10 mark in the league to finish fifth. The team returns its top two scorers in senior Julia Antonelli and sophomore Olivia Manges.

DeSales is coming off a 18-8 season and a spot in the Freedom Conference Tournament. The team is led by senior guard Sondrine Glovas, who averaged 17.9 points per game last year.
