GREENVILLE, S.C. – Furman's women's basketball team will play its third game of the week on Friday when it entertains Southern Wesleyan in an 11:00 a.m. Education Day clash at Timmons Arena.

The Paladins (1-1) picked up their first win of the season on Wednesday and handed head coach Pierre Curtis his 50th coaching victory by defeating Erskine, 106-48, behind a 23-point performance by junior All-Southern Conference forward Clare Coyle.

Junior guard Alyssa Ervin tallied 18 points are part of a five-player double figure scoring contingent.

Raina McGowens, a junior guard, delivered a solid all-around performance in the victory, scoring 14 points to go along with seven assists, six steals, and four rebounds.

The Paladins also received impressive play from a pair of freshmen — guard Nariah Nelson (6x7 FGs, 14 pts.) and forward Emma Briggs (11 pts., 7 rebs.).

Friday's game will not be live streamed, as will be the case for all Paladin home games against non-Division opponents this season.  Fans can follow the action online via StatBroadcast live stats, with links available via the schedule page on FurmanPaladins.com.
