Game Notes
The Rams are showing improvement under fifth year coach Cathy Andruzzi. The Rams hit rock bottom in the 2007-2008 season with a record of 0-29 (0-14 A10). Since they we 8-21 (1-13 A10) and 8-22 (2-12) in 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 seasons, respectively. They already have 10 wins this season and 2 home A-10 victories. Their last A-10 road win was February 7, 2009 vs. La Salle.
Dukes need to rebound from a poor shooting performance at GW. Dukes only shot 33% from the floor and watched GW cut an 18 point lead with 13 minutes left to 5 points with 40 seconds left. Dukes hung on to record their first win ever at GW by 8.
This is the third of four games in a row vs. the A10 second division teams and can not afford any slip-ups if they wish to achieve an NCAA at-large tournament bid.
