The women’s basketball team will travel to Southern Miss (Feb. 18) and Louisiana Tech (Feb. 20) in hopes to continuetheir charge at a conference title.

The Miners (21-2, 12-1 C-USA) rest atop the conference at first place. They are currently undefeated at home (14-0).

This past week, the Miners beat Florida Atlantic University in a resounding 75-47 win at home to continue their payback tour. In the victory, the Miners locked in defensively and held FAU to 31.5 percent shooting and forced 23 turnovers.
