Mount St. Mary's enters Saturday's contest with an 8-10 overall mark, 3-3 in the Northeast Conference. After dropping six of their first eight games, the Mountaineers have won six of their last ten. Most recently, The Mount fell to a high-powered Saint Francis U. team, 81-66, on the road despite 33 combined points from Jessie Kaufman and Sydney Henderson.

Junior guard Jacqueline Brewer ranks second on the team with 11.2 ppg in less than 25 mpg, while senior guard Ashley Christie leads the team with 3.6 assists per contest.

The Mountaineer's 68 ppg ranks third in the NEC behind only Saint Francis U. and Bryant, while their 74 ppg allowed is seventh in the league.
