Five things to consider ahead of Lady Mavericks’ two-game series against Arkansas State

The women’s basketball team (6-4, 4-2) will be home to face Arkansas State University in a two-game series starting at 6 p.m. on Friday at the College Park Center.

Here are five keys to this weekend’s contest between the Lady Mavs and the Red Wolves.

1. Battle for second place in the Sun Belt West Division

Arkansas State suffered its first conference play losses after being swept by the University of Louisiana at Lafayette over the weekend. Prior to that, the Red Wolves had not lost a game since Nov. 27.

The two losses create a window for UTA to surpass Arkansas State in the rankings.
