Millersville had not lost consecutive regular season games since the 2009-10 season when it lost three-straight.

(2) The Marauders are competing in the PSAC Tournament for the 16th-straight season, 18th in 22 seasons under head coach Mary Fleig.

It is the third-straight season the teams will meet to open up the conference tournament. Millersville  holds a 6-3 edge over the Golden Rams in the tournament (4-1 at home, 2-2 at West Chester). Last season, the Marauders defeated West Chester at Pucillo Gymnasium by a score of 70-65 to advance to the PSAC semifinals.

(4) West Chester and Millersville split the season-series with the Golden Rams taking the first one at Pucillo by a score of 61-59. The Marauders avenged the loss on  Feb. 4 at Hollinger Fieldhouse by a score of 69-68 after the Rams failed to tie the game at the buzzer. Millersville holds a 44-42 all-time record against West Chester, while Fleig is 29-22 against the PSAC East rival.

(5) Redshirt junior Aurielle Mosley enters the game needing 25 points to become just the 19th Millersville women's basketball players to reach 1,000 career points.
