WOMEN
› The women’s team has been the more competitive of the two this season. The women are currently 16-6 and had won 12 straight until a loss at Wofford on Feb. 7 in Spartanburg, South Carolina. The Mocs are 8-1 against the SoCon and hold a two-game lead over the Terriers, Furman and East Tennessee State in the league standings’ loss column. They have a sweep of the Paladins, and won the first game against ETSU in Johnson City (the two play again this Saturday in Chattanooga).
