Reading on it the reasoning it said due to departures and injuries only have 5 players available. Very strange? I would love to find out what's really going on with UCA Women's Basketball. Maybe The Athletic will do an investigative story on them. |

The women tip off in a "white out" game vs. Jacksonville in about an hour. They will play them again next week on the road.

Lions up at the half but it was a rough one. Missing lots of shots. JU turning it over a lot.

Exciting finish! UNA moves to 8-8 in ASUN play. They host UNF on Saturday before finishing the season at Jacksonville next week.

Start of the 4th was tough too. Callins and Moore hit some clutch outside shots to secure the win late. Guess the girls are definitely in the tourney?

Congrats to the ladies! It's been such an up and down season, but they still have a chance to finish with a winning conference record.
They're currently tied for the 6th seed, so they definitely need to win the last 2 games. North Florida comes to Florence on Saturday, and then they travel down to Jacksonville next Wednesday to close out the regular season. Both teams are behind us in the standings, but have a chance to lock in one of the last spots in the tourney. We're currently tied with JSU and KSU for the 6th seed. We've lost to JSU, and beaten KSU. JSU plays FGCU on Saturday, so they certainly have a tougher road than us and the Owls. If the Lions can win out I think they'll get the final "bye".

Lions win big over North FL. A good atmosphere for Hina Suzuki on Senior Day. Cool to see her family there. I didn’t realize her brother is also a UNA student now.

I'm still amazed that she would leave Japan to play basketball at UNA. Her sister was already playing in the US at D2 South Carolina - Aiken. Lots of international players want to play and get a degree from a U.S. school. We need more of that on all UNA sports teams. |

I remeber Jere Vicucia from Croatia on the 2013-14 GSC Championship Men's team.

Feel like the women’s team will give Jacksonville a good game tonight….thinking they will score more than 19 in the first half.
