WBB vs Coppin State 2PM Sat on ACCNx

The Ladies host the Coppin State Eagles today at 2 PM on the ACC Network extra platform. This should be another tune up game for the Hokies. The Eagles are 2-2 on the season with a close win against Frostburg State (72-70) and a blowout against Saint Francis. Their two losses were blowouts to Maryland and South Carolina.

Nine of the 13 players on the roster are transfers. Their top 7 players are all transfers, which is not a big surprise since this is coach Jermaine Woods third year leading the team.

The Eagles have started 8 different players in 4 games. They have two players scoring in double digits in Laila Lawrence at 18.5 ppg and Angel Jones at 14.5. Lawrence also averages 8.8 rebounds per game. At 6'2" she will be tallest Eagle on the court most of the game, although Belinga Ariell-vadr, 6'3" plays about half the game. She shoots 44% overall and 40% from three. She also averages 2.3 assists per game. Looks like a complete player who will be a challenge for the Hokies to guard. She scored 20 points and grabbed 7 rebounds against South Carlina. Angel Jones had 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists against SC. If the Hokies can hold those two to their season averages, this should be an easy win,

This should be another game for Coach Duffy to play a lot of players and try different line up combinations. Maybe Myah Hazelton will even get to play.

LET'S GO HOKIES!
