Gameday Central
The last time these two teams met was on February 2, 2004 in the HPE Building in Carrollton. That game was a hard-fought competition that West Georgia came out of with an 82-72 victory.
West Georgia is coming off of a tough loss in the season opener on Sunday afternoon, as the Wolves fell victim to 10th-ranked Augusta State in Augusta. Four Wolves reached double-digit scoring in the contest, led by junior guard Vojin Svilar. The native of Serbia was 4-of-7 from the three-point arc en route to an 18-point effort.
The Maroon Tigers are coming off of one of their worst seasons in recent memory, going 9-19 on the year in 2008-09.
On deck: The Wolves stay on the road for one more game as West Georgia travels to Milledgeville to take on Georgia College and State. Game time on Saturday is set for 3:30 p.m.
