Series History
The Camels and Dragons meet for the first time on the hardwood. Campbell is 1-0 against non-D1 opponents this season, with a win over Mid-Atlantic Christian.

Last Time Out
Campbell dropped a close one at Penn State on Tuesday, 87-76. The Camels trailed by only five with less than two minutes to play before the final deficit pushed to double digits in the closing moments.

DJ Smith led the Camels with 19 points, while Dovydas Butka notched 15 points and 9 rebounds. Campbell outrebounded the Nittany Lions 39-30 on the evening, but was plagued by 17 turnovers that limited scoring opportunities.

Scouting the Dragons
VUL enters with an 0-13 record, following back-to-back losses to Western Carolina and App State. Jacob Newman leads the scoring with 11.1 points per game. The Dragons have allowed 100+ points in 10 of their 13 games thus far.

Coastal Cool
Campbell has partnered with Fuquay-Varina based swimwear company Coastal Cool. Swim giveaways will occur throughout Sunday's game, with an opportunity to purchase their sustainable swimwear in the arena as well.
