Averett vs. Meredith (PDF)
The Series: The Cougars are 33-21 all-time against the Avenging Angels, including 14-11 on the road. In recent history, Averett has won eight consecutive games in the series and 12 of the last 13 meetings.
Averett at a Glance: The Cougars are coming off a tough loss to non-conference Emory & Henry College on the road on Sunday and currently sport a 16-8 (12-3 USA South) record on the season. Prior to that, Averett was on a six-game winning streak, all coming against USA South Conference opponents. This hot streak helped Averett take first place in the USA South East Division going into this matchup. The Cougars have clinched at least the No. 2 seed in the division and have the opportunity to host at least one USA South Conference Tournament game following the conclusion of the regular season, and could lock down the No. 1 seed if they win out and Greensboro College loses one of its final conference games.
Meredith at a Glance: The Avenging Angels have been much better in the latter portion of their season, winning five of their last six games to improve to 7-16 (7-7 USA South) on the season, after losing 15 of their first 17 games to start the season.
