Men's Basketball Set to Begin Stretch of 16 Straight League Games Saturday Evening

HIGHLANDER HITS
- Despite falling to the nationally-ranked Demon Deacons, Radford led 48-47 with just over 14 minutes remaining, before Wake went on a 23-7 run to grab the lead for good. Three Highlanders finished in double figures led by Artsiom Parakhouski (Minsk, Belarus), who recorded his league-leading sixth
double-double of the season with 15 points and 16 rebounds. Joey Lynch-Flohr (Fairfax, Va./Fairfax) and Kenny Thomas (Richmond, Va./Highland Springs) each contributed 14 for RU.

- Parakhouski also leads the Big South Conferencein rebounding with a clip of 9.9 per contest, which also ranks 20th nationally. His 4.3 offensive rebounds per game is also tops in the league. To go with Parakhouski's work on the glass, Amir Johnson holds the conference's top spot for assists per game.

- Radford is 10-13 all-time in Big South road openers.

- Presbyterian, which is one of two schools to join the league this year, enters tonight's contest 5-8 overall following an 84-45 loss at Marquette Sunday. Like Radford, the Blue Hose tested themselves with a very challenging non-conference slate.

- Presbyterian is led by Al-Lonso Coleman, who is averaging 15.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per contest.

- Radford will conclude its second of four three-game road trips this season with a 7:30 p.m. contest at Coastal Carolina Monday evening in Conway, S.C.
