GAME OVERVIEW
•    With two regular season games remaining Millersville is in must-win mode, trailing Lock Haven by one game for the final playoff spot from the PSAC East. The Marauders host West Chester at home and travel to Cheyney. Millersville is 7-5 at home and Cheyney is 2-24. West Chester, however, has won six in a row over the Marauders including three of the last four in Pucillo Gymnasium. Those six wins in a row are the most by either team in the series since the Marauders won 13 in a row from 1984-90.
•    The all-time series between Millersville and West Chester is among the most competitive in the PSAC. Millersville has played West Chester 196 times, second-most of any opponent.

•    Marcus Adkison, at 15.2 points per game, ranks 17th in the PSAC in scoring, sixth in 3-point field goal percentage and fifth in 3-pointers per game.

He's already made more threes than any other Marauder since Greg Testa's 73 in 33 games in 2006-07. Adkison's 3.0 makes per game is the highest mark by a Marauder since Kenny Brown made 98 in 30 games  3.27) in 1992-93.
