Live Stats | Live Audio | Live Video

REGULAR SEASON FINALE: UAH will travel to rival North Alabama to close out the regular season campaign, and the Saturday contest in Florence is slated for a 1 p.m. start at Flowers Hall. The Chargers will carry a 11-16 (8-13 GSC) record into the contest.
 
WE'RE IN: Thursday night's West Alabama loss at West Georgia secured a position for the Chargers in the 2015 GSC Women's Basketball Championships, and the team will either serve as the No. 7 or 8 seed. If the Chargers win and Shorter loses on Saturday, UAH will travel to second-seeded West Florida on Super Tuesday, otherwise the team will venture to top-seeded Union.
 
CHARGER LEADERS: Halle Jarnagin and the Saunders twins continue to lead the way for the Chargers as the each member of the trio is averaging double figures over the team's last five games. Jarnagin is scoring 12.6 points per game over the span while grabbing 5.8 rebounds, and Josi Saunders is averaging 10.8 with her sister Dina Saunders pouring in 10.2 per contest during the stretch.
 
CLOSE CALLS: Though the Chargers have dropped six of their last seven, UAH could have ended up on the right side of three of those games as they were decided by three points or less: falling 59-58 on a last-second shot by Shorter, dropping a 53-50 overtime decision to Christian Brothers, and coming up just short in a 64-62 contest with Union that saw free throws by UU with 0.3 seconds left prove to be the difference.
 
ABOUT NORTH ALABAMA: The Lions have secured the fifth seed in the upcoming GSC tournament, owning a 14-11 overall mark and an 11-10 record in conference play heading into the regular season's last day. Jennifer Towne's 13.8 points per game scoring average leads the Lions, while Mekena Randle paces the team on the glass with 6.8 boards per contest.
 
LAST TIME AGAINST UNA: North Alabama visited Spragins Hall on Jan. 17 and left with an 80-70 victory after Towne led a quartet of players in double figures for the Lions with 19 points. The Chargers were paced by Dina Saunders who scored 17, while Loren Foster buried four triples en route to scoring 16.
