HUSSON vs. U-NEW BRUNSWICK

Time, site: Friday, 7 p.m., at Newman Gym, Bangor

Records: Husson 19-2, U-New Brunswick 15-6.

Key players: Husson – C Steph Lebel (16.8 ppg), F Anne Cote (12.8 ppg), F Michelle Hamlin (10.9 ppg), G Vicki Mazerall (9.9 ppg), G Darci Collins (7.2 ppg), G Kristi Wildman (7.1 ppg); UNB – F Kara Palmer (19 ppg, 10 rpg), C Laura Swift (11 ppg, 8 rpg), G Jennifer Hale (14 ppg), G Jill Jackson (5 ppg, 8 apg), F Tracy Lordon (4 ppg)

Outlook: Revenge is on the mind of the Husson women. Last year, the Red Bloomers upset Husson twice. Coach Kissy Walker’s Braves have not forgotten both losses. Husson, ranked seventh in the NAIA Division II national rankings, has won three in a row. This year’s UNB squad, statistically, is better than last year’s. Palmer and Hale are a good inside-outside combination. Husson’s pressure will be key.
