About Wofford (17-10, 9-5)
The Terriers are presently tied with Mercer for second place in the league standings but are coming off consecutive losses to Samford and UNCG this past week to lose sole place of second.  Wofford had won six of seven league games before going cold this past week.
 
Kahmare Holmes ranks third in the league in scoring at 19.0 points per game and is one of four Terriers averaging double figures including Nils Machowski (16.8), Cayden Vasko (10.6) and Chace Watley (10.1).  Machowski leads the team in rebounding at 5.8 boards per game and Holmes is right behind at 5.7.
 
All-Time Series: 10-27
After VMI knocked off the Terriers last season in Spartanburg by a 74-67 count, Wofford responded with a win in Lexington a few weeks later and eventually defeated the Keydets in the semifinals of the SoCon Tournament to end VMI's run at the league tourney.

The Keydets look to end a three-game losing streak to the Terriers following Wofford's win in Lexington earlier this month.
