GREENVILLE, S.C -- Furman's women's basketball returns to action on Sunday when it plays host to Radford in a 2:00 p.m. ESPN+ live streamed contest at Timmons Arena.

Furman (6-6) has dropped its last two contests, including a 75-69 home verdict to Kennesaw State on Thursday.

Radford (4-5) knocked Oueens, 73-57, on Thursday to halt a modest two-game skid.

The Highlanders claimed a 73-61 win over the Paladins a year ago at Radford in the first meeting between the two programs.

Furman is paced on the stat sheet by freshman guard Jaelyn Acker (14.4 ppg), who is coming off a 20-point performance against Kennesaw State.  The Richfield, Wisc., product has proven effective from 3-point range, where she is making 36.0 percent of her attempts (32x89), and has been superb at the free throw line, draining 33-of-35 chances (.943%), including a school record 32 straight before missing her final attempt in Thursday's contest.

Graduate post Grace van Rij (13.9 ppg) has also been productive as scorer and on the glass (6.9 rpg).    The Knoxville, Tenn., native ranks fourth in the SoCon in field goal percentage (.521%).

Head coach Jackie Carson has gotten good production from several other players, most notably freshman forward Sydney Ryan (9.5 ppg), sophomore forward Jada Session (8.7 ppg, 8.0 rpg).  A player who holds a big key to the Paladins' improvement is junior forward Sydney James (6.8 ppg, 6.0 rpg), who is looking to break out from a slow start due to early season injury.

Sophomore Janay Outten has stepped in at point guard after a torn Achilles tendon ended All-SoCon performer Tate Walters' season, posting solid assist (54) / turnover (21) numbers.
