PREVIEW: GS Women's Basketball Opens Home Slate Monday Against Coastal Georgia

STATESBORO, Ga. - The Georgia Southern women's basketball team opens up its 2017-18 home slate by welcoming in the College of Coastal Georgia on Monday for a 5 p.m. contest at Hanner Fieldhouse.

The Eagles (0-1) dropped their season-opener on Friday, seeing North Carolina A&T use a 16-0 second-half run to pick up a 60-49 win. Georgia Southern uncharacteristically struggled from three-point range in the matchup, hitting just two of 21 three-pointers. But the Eagles will be happy to get back to the friendly confines of Hanner, where Georgia Southern won eight games last year and had their best home record since 2010-11.
