The Pride (9-13, 2-9 Colonial Athletic Association) played William & Mary twice in three days, once at home and once on the road, with each team taking the win on their home court. The Tribe used a big second quarter to get past Hofstra on Tuesday night at Kaplan Arena. The Pride had three players finish in double figures in the loss, however, led by senior
Krystal Luciano with 18 points, her third straight game in double digits. Junior Ashunae posted her 19th double-figure performance and freshman
Marianne Kalin recorded a career high with 16 points each.
Charleston (8-14, 5-6 CAA) has won three of its last four, including beating the Pride, 71-55, on Jan. 27 in South Carolina. However, the Cougars will have to give up its conference wins against William & Mary and UNCW from early January prior to seeding for the CAA Tournament as a consequence for the use of improper basketballs in those games. Breanna Bolden leads the team in scoring and rebounding, with her 17.9 points per game ranking second in the conference and 8.9 boards per contest ranking third. As a team, the Cougars are shooting 39.9 percent from the field and averaging 64.7 points per game.
After the matchup with Charleston, the Pride will head back out on the road, travelling to Delaware on Sunday for a 5 p.m. game that will be televised by American Sports Network.
