About the Terriers (15-8, 7-3)
One of the top teams in the Southern Conference, the Wofford Terriers enter Wednesday's contest currently ranked second in the league standings with seven conference wins. The Terriers will be eager to get back in the win column following an 86-72 loss at home to league leader ETSU this past Sunday in Spartanburg. Prior to the loss, the Terriers had won their four previous conference games over Furman, Samford, Mercer and Chattanooga.
 
Kahmare Holmes leads the team averaging 19.0 points per game, second-most in the conference. Nils Machowski is second on the team with 16.7 points per contest and has logged 64 threes on the year – double the amount of anyone else on the team. Holmes and Brian Sumpter lead the team in rebounds at 5.7 per game, and Cayden Vasko is the key distributor with 93 assists for the season.
 
All-Time Series: 10-26
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 incredible run at the league tourney.

The Keydets look to pick up their 11th all-time win over the Terriers in a series dating back to 1970.
