MOUNTAINEERS HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND | SEASON STATS

• Western will need to get their offense going in order to snap this two-game losing streak – shooting 26.5 percent over the last two games. However, they showed stretches of great offense, against the Griffins and Mavericks, that they will try to put together for four quarters.
• That might not be an easy task if Samantha Coleman isn't in the lineup – missed the last two games – as she is one of the Mountaineers top scorers. Coleman averages 11.1-points (No. 17 RMAC) per game in Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference play, shooting 42.5 percent from the field and 38.6 percent (No. 4 RMAC) from three.
• Western still does have Grace Kirscher – who also averages 11.1-points (No. 18 RMAC)– and Katie Dalton who scores 10.5-points. Dalton shoots 57.3 percent from the field, while Kirscher shoots 37.4 percent from the field and 32.1 percent (No. 10 RMAC) from three.
• The Mountaineers are currently in eighth place (6-6) in the RMAC standings with 10 games left in the season.
