Series History
Both Weber State and UT Arlington are first-time opponents for the Camels. That will mark six consecutive first-time opponents for the Camels to open up the season.

The trip is Campbell's first to the Beehive State, and Weber State represents the first Utah based school the Camels have ever faced.

Scouting the Wildcats
Weber State carries a 1-3 record into this week's action, with a win over non-D1 West Coast Baptist. All three losses have been close, including an overtime loss at in-state foe Utah.

Trevor Hennig leads the way on offense, averaging 16 points and reaching double figures in all four games thus far. He is one of three Wildcats averaging double figures.

Weber State was picked to finish ninth in the Big Sky preseason poll. The squad is coached by Eric Duft in his fourth season at the helm.

Scouting the Mavericks
UT Arlington enters the week at 3-1, including a D1 win over Missouri State and a loss at New Mexico.

Raysean Seamster leads the charge with 17.5 ppg, and scoring at least 17 in all four games. Seamster leads three players in double figures, with two others averaging 10.8 apiece.

UT Arlington was picked fourth in the WAC preseason poll, with one first place vote. Seamster was tabbed to the preseason all-WAC team. The team is led by KT Turner in his third season as head coach.

Last Time Out
A big second half led Campbell to surge past Mid-Atlantic Christian 108-55 Thursday night in Buies Creek. The Camels were two points shy of the Gore Arena scoring record in the win.

DJ Smith poured in 27 points, his third 20-point game of the year. Dovydas Butka posted a 12-point, 16-rebound double-double to tie the arena rebounding record, a mark that had not been met since 2012.

Looking Ahead
Campbell faces another power conference road test, making the trip to Wake Forest on Nov. 25 to face the Demon Deacons for the first time since 2000.
