The Series: Western owns a 33-23 record with Asheville, but are only 12-14 in games played in Asheville. The Cats have won 4 of the last 5 games played, with the Bulldogs breaking the Cats 4 game win streak last December in a one point victory over the Cats in Cullowhee (72-73).

Asheville was picked to finish in 3rd place in the Big South preseason poll, & Drew Pember (Sr., F, 6-10) was selected first team All-BS honors, while Tajion Jones, (Gr., G, 6-5) was selected for second team honors.

After starting the season with three straight wins, the Bulldogs dropped two straight games in the Capitol Classic (Eastern Kentucky & Georgia State). Asheville has designated the WCU game as a "White Out" game, so I'm expecting a large crowd on hand.

The Bulldogs are averaging 81.4 points per game, hitting approx. 47% of their field goals. Drew Pember is the dogs leading scorer, averaging 21.0 ppg, and Tajion Jones is also scoring in double figures hitting 15.6 ppg. Pember is also the team's leading rebounder, pulling down 8.4 rebounds.

I'm hoping our comeback against Georgia to cut the lead to a couple points before we ran out of steam after digging out of too large of a hole, followed by the three wins in the weekend tournament, should do a lot for confidence going into this one.
