Audio / Stats / Game Notes

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - After a heartbreaking overtime loss to Albright, the Lycoming College women's basketball team will get back on the court on Satuday, Jan. 25, when it heads to Elizabethtown College looking to knock off its second first-place team in the last three games.

The Warriors (7-8 overall, 4-5 Commonwealth) knocked off Stevenson, 66-61, on Jan. 19, helping knock the Mustangs into second place. Elizabethtown (13-2 overall, 7-2 Commonwealth) followed with a win over the Mustangs, which coupled with a Lebanon Valley loss, moved the Blue Jays into a tie for first.

The Warriors are one game out of the fifth and final playoff spot with eight games remaining while the Blue Jays have a magic number of seven to clinch a playoff slot.
