HAMMOND, La. – The HBU women's basketball team continues their tour of Louisiana Saturday afternoon when they take on the top ranked Southeastern Lady Lions at 1:00 p.m. The game can be seen on ESPN+ and play-by-play from HBU's Garrett Jones can be found on HBUHuskies.com

The Huskies (10-9, 6-2 SLC) are coming off of a win against the Northwestern State Lady Demons which saw them use defense and a late offensive push to get past the Lady Demons. In that game, N'Denasija Collins led three Huskies in double figures with 12 points. Enya Maguire and Julija Vujakovic each dropped in 11.
 
Four different Huskies pulled in at least six rebounds including Abbey Sutherland who pulled in a team high eight. Maguire recorded a career high seven assists, shattering her previous record of five.
 
The Lady Lions (12-6, 8-0 SLC) sit atop the Southland Conference standings. Caitlyn Williams leads the Lady Lions in scoring with 9.2 points per game. Morgan Carrier and Morgan Davis sit close behind, each averaging 8.3 points per game.
 
Both of these teams met just one week ago in Houston when Southeastern held the Huskies to a season low 30 points and walked away with a 52-30 victory. The Huskies will attempt to end a five game skid against the Lady Lions dating back to 2017.
 
So far this season Timia Jefferson is leading the Huskies in scoring 12.5 points per contest. Collins follows behind averaging 10.8 points per game while averaging a team high 7.1 rebounds per game. Marilyn Nzoiwu comes off the bench to average five points and six rebounds for HBU and has a team high 25 blocks while Sutherland has totaled 25.
 
The Huskies will conclude their Louisiana road trip next Thursday when they travel to Thibodaux to attempt the season sweep of Nicholls.
