FAIRLAWN, Va. (Interstat) — The Radford Highlanders, riding a potent offense, will look to solidify their standing in the Big South Conference when they host the struggling Presbyterian Blue Hose in a women’s NCAA Division I basketball matchup Wednesday. The game is scheduled for a 7 p.m. tipoff at the D.N. Dedmon Center. Radford (18-11, 11-5 Big South) enters on a high note after a 92-78 road victory at Charleston Southern on Saturday, a game in which they shot 54% from the field. The Highlanders have won five of their last seven and are currently third in the conference standings. Junior guard Kirah Dandridge has been a key catalyst, averaging 12.3 points over her last three games, including a 17-point, five-rebound performance in the win over Charleston Southern. Conversely, Presbyterian (3-24, 2-14) seeks to halt a seven-game losing streak. The Blue Hose are coming off a 76-58 loss at UNC Asheville on Saturday. Their season has been defined by offensive struggles, as they have failed to reach 65 points in any of their last 13 contests. They rank last in the Big South in scoring offense. A player to watch for Presbyterian is senior guard Daniella Velez, who is coming off one of her best performances of the season with 16 points, four rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 35 minutes against UNC Asheville. She will need a similar effort to challenge a Radford defense allowing just 58.2 points per game in conference play. The teams last met on New Year’s Eve, with Radford delivering a dominant 75-32 victory in Clinton, South Carolina. The Highlanders have won 12 of the last 13 meetings in the series. With the Big South tournament approaching, Radford aims to build momentum for a potential top-four seed and a first-round bye. Presbyterian, long eliminated from contention, looks to play spoiler and find a positive note in a difficult season.
