Preview: North Carolina A&T vs. College of Charleston (Womenās Basketball) WASHINGTON (Interstat) ā The College of Charleston Cougars, boasting one of the nationās top records, will look to complete a regular-season sweep when they host the North Carolina A&T Aggies in a womenās NCAA Division I basketball game Friday at CareFirst Arena. The matchup is a quick rematch from last Saturday, when the Cougars (24-5) held off the Aggies 70-64 in Greensboro. College of Charleston has won both meetings this season, also defeating North Carolina A&T 71-62 on Jan. 25. The Cougars enter on a strong note, having won eight of their last nine games. Their lone loss in that stretch was a 59-57 upset by Campbell on March 1. Guard Taylor Barbot, who scored 18 points and dished eight assists in the win over A&T last weekend, is a key facilitator for a potent Charleston offense. North Carolina A&T (12-18) seeks to snap a two-game skid after falling 61-58 at William & Mary on Thursday. The Aggies have shown resilience, with four of their last six losses coming by six points or fewer, including an overtime defeat at Drexel. A&T will rely heavily on forward Chaniya Clark, who has been a dominant force. Clark is coming off a 12-rebound, three-block performance against Charleston and has averaged 18.6 points over her last seven games, including a 26-point outing at Monmouth. The game presents a stark contrast in season trajectories. Charleston, likely eyeing postseason positioning, will aim to maintain its momentum. The Aggies, meanwhile, will look to play spoiler and gain a measure of revenge from last weekās narrow defeat, leaning on Clarkās interior presence to challenge the Cougarsā balance. Tip-off is scheduled for Friday, March 13, 2026.
