A New Season Begins

Coming off back-to-back USA South title game appearances, NCWU will hit the court in conference action for the first time in 2024-25. Led by Senior Nadia Simmons who is averaging nearly seventeen points per contest, NCWU looks to win its conference opener for the eighth straight season. 

Last Time Out

NCWU will look to bounce back at Brevard after dropping the last two non-conference matchups to Mary Washington and Lynchburg. Against the Eagles last Tuesday, Wesleyan outrebounded Mary Washington 41-38 and shot 46.3% from the field.

The Opponent

The Tornados come into Tuesday's matchup with an overall record of 4-2 and defeated William Peace in the conference opener by a score of 71-58. Brevard is led by guard duo Josie Hester and Jada Petty-Wilkins who are both averaging over fourteen points per contest.
