PREVIEW: Lady Cougs to Clash with Lady Eagles in Top Three Matchup
Posted: Jan 18, 2020

Women's Basketball looks to get back on track on Saturday as they play a crucial conference game in Dyersburg, Tenn. against the Lady Eagles. Tip-off is scheduled for 3:00 ET.

These two teams are neck-and-neck in the TCCAA standings. Cleveland State sits at 10-6 overall with a 6-2 conference record. They last played on Wednesday, when they suffered a tough defeat at the hands of Chattanooga State, but won six straight games prior to the matchup. Dyersburg State, with a 16-3 overall record, also has a conference mark of 6-2. They won at Jackson State in their last game on Wednesday and are currently in the midst of a nine game winning streak.

History is on the Lady Cougars' side as they have dominated the series with the Lady Eagles. Since 2001, Cleveland State holds a 24-4 record against Dyersburg State and have won four straight against them, including recording a sweep in last year's season series. 

The Lady Cougars will hope that Asjah Harrell can keep her scoring streak alive. Harrell has scored 20 or more points in five straight games, including scoring 27 against the Lady Tigers on Wednesday. She is third in the TCCAA in scoring, averaging 20.9 points a game, and first in assists with a 5.9 a game mark.

After this contest, Cleveland State will return home to host Volunteer State next Saturday. Game time is scheduled for 2:00 ET.
