The Lady Camels, at 14-11 and 9-7 in A-Sun play, are coming off one of their season's most meaningful wins, defeating Mercer 66-60 in Buies Creek last Saturday to break a tie with the Bears in the league standings and put Campbell in position for the A-Sun Tournament's (March 3-6 in Macon, Ga.) No. 2 seed.

Senior center Ashley Williamson vaulted Campbell to its 14^th win of the season, a program high since 2001, posting a season-high 18 points with 10 rebounds in a crucial win against Mercer. The double-double was Williamson's fifth in six games, the seventh of the season and the 11th of her career. In the first half of the 66-60 win, Williamson, Campbell's lone four-year senior, also pulled down her 500th career rebound, becoming the 17th Lady Camel to accomplish the feat. Williamson has averaged 11.5 points and 10.3 rebounds since beginning the second half of A-Sun play (last six games).

Sophomore guard Kate Cloxton also tied a career-high with nine assists in the win. Freshman post Jazmine Cooper also reached double figures with a season-high 12 points to go along with four boards, adding a steal. Sophomore guard Amanda O'Neill chipped in 12 points with four boards and four steals.

The win was Campbell's 14^th of the season, the most since 2000-01, while the team's nine A-Sun wins marks the most since 2005-06 (10). If the Lady Camels hold on to the No. 2 seed, it will be their highest since 2001, when Campbell took the tourney's top seed, coming two points shy of its second-straight conference championship, falling 64-62 to Georgia State.

ETSU (16-8, 14-2 A-Sun) has already locked up the No. 1 seed in next month's tournament, doing so in an 18-point, 81-63 win over Kennesaw State on Saturday. The Buccaneers have represented the A-Sun in the NCAA Tournament in each of the past two years.

ETSU boasts the league's top offense at 78.0 points per game, however, rank at the bottom in scoring defense, allowing 73.5 points a contest. The Bucs also bring in two of the top-three scorers in the A-Sun, in senior guard TaRhonda Wiles (18.5 ppg) and reigning Player of the Year Siarre Evans (16.0 ppg). All five ETSU starters rank among the league's top-20. Evans is also second in the A-Sun in rebounding at 10.4 boards per game, one of three in the conference to average a double-double.

The Lady Camels will play their final home game of the year on Saturday against USC Upstate. Lady Camel seniors Ashley Williamson and Geami Britt will be honored before the game.
