ANDERSON, S.C. -- The game notes for the Anderson University women's basketball exhibition with Division I opponent Liberty on Thursday have been released.
Snapping a two-game losing streak with a convincing 87-55 victory over South Atlantic Conference favorite Newberry on Saturday, the Trojans step away from their regular season schedule to play their second of two midseason exhibitions. After suffering a 78-67 setback to Furman in its first exhibition on Dec. 30, AU heads to Big South Conference power Liberty on Dec. 12 for a noon tip-off.
Liberty (4-5, 1-0 BSC) is winners of four of its last five, capped off by its first Big South win over in-state rival Radford on Saturday (70-49).
