With just four games remaining in the regular season, the Stetson Hatters will host the North Alabama Lions for a key conference showdown Saturday afternoon at the Edmunds Center. Tip-off  is scheduled for 1 p.m. with live coverage on ESPN+.

With a win on Saturday, the Hatters (14-12, 9-3 ASUN) would clinch home court advantage for the ASUN quarterfinal round and reduce their magic number to 1 to clinch the No. 2 seed.  Stetson could also clinch a top four seed Saturday if Liberty defeats North Florida.

The Hatters are coming off a 56-47 victory at NJIT on Tuesday. Stetson trailed 38-30 late in the third quarter but finished the game on a 26-9 run.  It was the Hatters' fourth second-half come-from-behind victory in ASUN play this season and fifth overall.

Day'Neshia Banks has been red-hot of late for the Hatters.  The sophomore forward has scored in double figures in 10 straight games (16.4 ppg), and she is averaging 19.7 ppg in her last three games.  That includes a 20-point, 10-rebound double-double on Tuesday night.

The Lions (17-5, 8-4) have lost two straight after falling 74-72 in overtime at Kennesaw State on Tuesday.  Brittany Panetti leads UNA in scoring (15.1 ppg).

UNA defeated the Hatters 71-55 earlier this season in Florence, Ala.  Saturday will be the first-ever meeting between the teams in DeLand.

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.  

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.
