TOP WOMEN'S GAME
#23 USC Aiken (8-2, 2-2) at Francis Marion (9-1, 2-1)--Wednesday 5:30 p.m. EST
The Lady Pacers travel to Florence, S.C. in hopes of bouncing back after being knocked off by current WBCA #20 North Georgia College & State University 93-83 Saturday.
The Patriots, on the other hand, will put their five-game winning streak on the line in this critical Peach Belt Conference contest. FMU is currently in a four-way with Armstrong Atlantic State (8-2), Augusta State (8-2), and the aforementioned North Georgia (9-1), who travels to Georgia College & State University the same night.
Ironically, GC&SU (6-3, 1-1) not only sits just half a game behind this quartet, but also is in a virtual tie with preseason favorite Clayton State (7-4, 2-2), and USCA. And to top it all off, Lander (8-4, 3-0) is the only unbeaten team remaining in PBC play heading into mid-week action.
TOP MEN'S GAME
North Georgia (6-4, 1-2) at Georgia College & State University (7-2, 1-1)--Wednesday 7:30 p.m. EST
The Saints face the Bobcats in a battle of middle of the pack PBC men's squads. North Georgia began the 2008 portion of their schedule on a losing note, fallling to USC Aiken (10-1, 4-0) 96-91 Saturday, while GC&SU dropped a 75-53 decision to Johnson C. Smith in non-conference action last Thursday. The winner of this contest could make a serious case for challenging the NABC 8th-ranked Pacers, who remain the lone unbeaten men's team in PBC play.
