Stetson will begin a two-game homestand Tuesday night when the Hatters host the NJIT Highlanders.  Tip-off at the Edmunds Center is set for 7 p.m. with live coverage on ESPN+.

Tickets start at just $7 for general admission and can be purchased online or at the Edmunds Center box office.  Stetson students, faculty and staff are admitted free with an ID.  Club sports teams are invited to show their school spirit as well.

After going 1-2 on a recent three-game road swing, the Hatters (7-11, 2-2) will play seven of their next 10 at home.  Stetson is 6-2 at the Edmunds Center this season and averaging over 67 points-per-game.  That mark includes a 69-52 victory over Liberty to begin ASUN play back on Jan. 8.

McKenna Beach is closing in on a scoring milestone.  The senior point guard is just 19 points shy of 1000 for her career. She is looking to become just the 23rd player in school history to reach that mark.

Like Stetson, the Highlanders (5-12) enter the game with an even 2-2 record in ASUN play.  NJIT has conference wins over Lipscomb and Kennesaw State.  Kelly Guarino leads the Highlanders in scoring (15.1 ppg).

Stetson leads the all-time series 6-0 over NJIT, including a 3-0 mark in DeLand.  

In addition to the ESPN+ broadcast, live stats, the Stetson women's basketball twitter feed, and the HatCheck text messaging service will provide live updates as well.

Free Throw Shooting
Stetson went 12-of-13 from the line at North Alabama Saturday to raise its season free throw percentage to .730.  The Hatters are shooting .792 from the line in ASUN play, tops in the league.

Banks Stepping Up
In her last two games, Day'Neshia Banks has scored 26 points and pulled down 13 rebounds.  In just seven games on the season she has led the team in scoring twice and led the team in rebounding three times.

Double-Double for Walters
Addi Walters recorded her first career double-double Saturday, collecting 10 points and a career-high 10 rebounds at North Alabama.  She is averaging 11.5 ppg in ASUN play this season.  

No Nail-Biters
Stetson has not had a game decided by 10 points or less since the 60-59 victory over North Dakota State on Dec. 21.
