Previous Meeting

A 16-0 second half run helped Albright break open what was a 35-35 game, in a 60-47 win at Hood last February.

Kelecia Harris had 26 points and 20 rebounds, eventually leading to her first career selection to D3hoops.com's national Team of the Week. Harris' 20 rebounds is tied for sixth all-time at Albright, and her 26 points were the most by a Lion since 2009 (Harris has since raised her career-high to 28 points this season).

Meghan Boyle just missed a double-double with eight points and nine rebounds, while Tara Sabotchick added 11 points.

Albright College Lions (8-5, 2-4)

Albright is 8-5 overall, but 2-4 in the Commonwealth Conference after three straight losses to top-five teams in the standings. The Lions will be looking for a victory tonight to get back in the playoff mix.

On Monday, the Lions beat Penn State-Berks 87-31 and did not allow a field goal for the opening 13:09 of the game. Sophomore Kadijah Bishop had a career day with 16 points, 15 rebounds and five steals. Harris also had a double-double with 21 points and 11 boards.

Harris currently ranks 10th nationally in field goal percentage (.600), and 18th in blocked shots (2.7 bpg). Junior Jessica Venturelli is third in the Commonwealth in assists (4.4 apg).

Hood College Blazers (4-9, 1-5)

Hood is 1-5 in the Commonwealth Conference, but has won two of its last three games. That included an emphatic 74-53 league win in Reading, at Alvernia. Brittney George had a double-double in that game, scoring 13 points and adding 11 rebounds. Arianna Delerme had 10 points off the bench.

Hood had possession with a chance to win on Saturday vs. Arcadia, but Victoria Mazzeo stole the ball and went the other way for the game-winner with one second remaining in a 59-57 final.

The Blazers opened the season against Division I George Mason University, losing 78-35.
