Women's Basketball looks to stay hot on Saturday afternoon, as they host Columbia State in their first home conference matchup of 2020. Tip-off is scheduled for 2:00 ET.

The Lady Cougars (9-5, 5-1 TCCAA) have won five straight games, including their last on Wednesday at Motlow State 79-70. They currently sit at third in the conference. The Lady Chargers (2-11, 0-7 TCCAA) have lost four straight games, including their most recent at home vs. Dyersburg State on Wednesday. Columbia State is currently the 10th seed in the conference.

These two teams have not faced each other since the 2017-2018 season, where they split the season series 1-1. The Lady Chargers won the first matchup on Nov. 18, 2017 in Cleveland 59-51, while the Lady Cougars won the matchup in Columbia, Tenn. 74-65. Cleveland State holds a 17-6 edge in the series since 2001.
