Radford to Conclude Palmetto State Swing with 7:30 p.m. tip at Coastal Carolina Monday

CONWAY, S.C. -- Fresh off an impressive 65-55 victory at Presbyterian Saturday, Radford will conclude its second of four three-game road trips with a 7:30 p.m. contest at Coastal Carolina Monday evening.

HIGHLANDER HITS
- Radford's first road win of the 2008-09 campaign ended Presbyterian's 14-game home winning streak.

- Joey Lynch-Flohr (Fairfax, Va. / Fairfax) paced three Highlanders in double figures with 15 points. Art Parakhouski (Minsk, Belarus), who leads the Big South and ranks T15th nationally in rebounds per outing with a 10.2 average, recorded his third straight and seventh double-double of the season with 14 points and 14 boards. Amir Johnson (Pittsburgh, Pa. / Quaker Valley) also hit the 10-point plateau against PC with 13.

- As a team, Radford shot an impressive 53.1 percent from the floor against the Blue Hose.

- Radford is looking to win back-to-back Big South road contests for the first time since stringing together victories over Coastal Carolina (1/21/06) and Charleston Southern (1/23/06), which was also the last time the Highlanders recorded consecutive road wins.

- Coastal Carolina enters the 48th meeting all-time 7-7 overall and 1-1 in the league following an 82-69 win over High Point Saturday night. Like the Highlanders in their last outing, the Chanticleers shot over 50 percent from the floor and canned nine buckets from downtown. 

-  CCU is led offensively and on the glass by Joseph Harris, who is averaging 12.2 points and 9.9 rebounds per outing.

- Radford returns home for a pair of conference games beginning with a 7 p.m. tip against UNC Asheville Saturday, Jan. 10.
