Fresh off a 19-point victory at NJIT on Saturday, the Stetson Hatters will go for a sweep of the road trip at Monday night at USC Upstate. Tip-off at the Hodge Center is set for 7 p.m. with live coverage on ESPN3.  

Monday will mark the final road game of the regular season for the Hatters (15-11, 6-4 ASUN), who will play their next three conference games at home.  Stetson could clinch an ASUN quarterfinal home game with a win Monday against USC Upstate (11-16, 4-6 ASUN) combined with a UNF win over Kennesaw State.

The Hatters have won four in a row against the Spartans, including a dramatic 62-61 win at the Edmunds Center on Jan. 13.  Trailing by 14 points with nine minutes to play, Stetson rallied down the stretch and took the lead for good on a Brittney Chambers putback with 40.1 to go.  It was the Hatters' largest fourth quarter comeback in school history.

Stetson leads the all-time series 17-6.

In addition to the live broadcast, live stats, the Stetson women's basketball twitter feed (@StetsonWBB), and theHatCheck text messaging system will have live updates as well.

She had a double-double by halftime (11 points, 12 rebounds) and finished the game 8-for-9 from the floor.  In her last five games, Pruitt is averaging 14.6 points and 9.2 rebounds, and she is shooting 66.7 percent from the floor.

With her five assists Saturday, McKenna Beach surpassed the 100-assist mark for the first time in her career.  She is just one of two players in the ASUN (Loren Cagle) with over 100 assists on the season.
