W. Basketball. Lady Toppers Try for 10th Straight Win against Rice Thursday

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. - WKU kicks off a four-game homestand inside E.A. Diddle Arena as the Lady Toppers seek their 10th consecutive victory against Rice on Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m. (CT).

WKU carries a nine-game winning streak into the matchup, and a victory would give the Lady Toppers their fourth 10-game winning streak under Head Coach Michelle Clark-Heard. In their last time out, the Lady Toppers used a strong second quarter and 15 fourth-quarter points from Tashia Brown to defeat Florida Atlantic, 81-62, in Boca Raton, Fla., last Saturday.

After starting 1-11 this season, Rice has won its last two outings in dramatic fashion with overtime victories over UTSA and North Texas.
