With the fall semester underway, some of LVC’s most competitive teams are starting their seasons soon, specifically women’s basketball.
The Lady Dutchmen are looking to improve on their positive record from last year where they posted a 15-11 record while being 9-5 in conference. The team’s record earned LVC a spot in the MAC Freedom playoffs.
After splitting the regular season with Arcadia University and winning the final regular season game by 26 points, the teams met again for the third time in a season. Unfortunately, the game ended in heartbreak for the Dutchmen as Arcadia won by one point with a final score of 52-53.
This year, the Lady Dutchmen try to improve on that 15-11 record, make it further into the MAC Playoffs and make an NCAA playoff appearance. They start their season on Saturday, Nov. 9, and will play Neumann University at home. They will then travel to Boston for the EC Tip-Off Classic for two days.
They begin conference play on Wednesday, Jan. 8, against Stevens Institute of Technology.
