FAIRMONT —
The Fairmont State women’s basketball team is back at home — with the hopes of bouncing back.
The Lady Falcons, who saw their two-game winning streak snapped in a 72-62 league loss to West Liberty on Saturday, host non-conference Washington Adventist University at 6 p.m. Monday at the Joe Retton Arena.
With three games left before the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tournament begins, FSU (16-9) is looking for a little late-season momentum. It is something that has eluded the team so far, as the Lady Falcons are 5-5 in their past 10 games and haven’t won three in a row since a six-game run to start the new calendar year.
Find the full story in Monday’s Times West Virginian, available at newsstands or through home delivery by calling 304-367-2525 or 304-367-2527.
