GAME OVERVIEW
• After picking up consecutive PSAC wins for the first time this season, the Marauders dropped a home game against IUP before falling to Bloomsburg on the road. 
• A slow start against Bloomsburg put the Marauders in a hole they couldn't dig out of, being outscored 19-10 in the first quarter. Despite the Huskies only scoring three points in the third quarter, Millersville only managed eight as Celeste Robinson battled foul trouble.
• Robinson led the team with 13 points while Courtney Hinnant scored eight points and added eight rebounds in the effort. Aunjel Van Brakle and Courtney Dimoff added six and five points respectively, but the Marauders were outscored 62-53.
• Van Brakle has continued to be a force on the defensive end, blocking 28 shots on the season which ranks her third in the PSAC in that category.

• West Chester enters Wednesday's matchup with a 6-9 record with all six wins coming in conference play (6-5). The Golden Rams recently fell to Shippensburg but responded with a win over Cheyney.
• West Chester features three players averaging double-digits in Porscha Speller, Madison Torresin, and Tori Smick. 
• Madison Torresin has been a beast on the boards, ranking fifth in the PSAC with 129 rebounds on the season. Torresin also ranks eighth with a field goal percentage of .472 and second on the team with 13.2 points per game.

THE LAST MEETING (Feb. 20, 2016: MU 79, WC 70)
• Millersville and West Chester met twice last year with each team winning at home. The Marauders got the better of the Golden Rams in the last matchup, winning 79-70.
• The Marauders jumped out in front early, outscoring West Chester in three of four quarters including a 28-15 first quarter.
