RADFORD, Va. -- Radford hosts High Point Monday evening at 7 p.m. in a game that pits a pair of teams trying to get back on the winning track. Coming off a 63-49 home defeat to Winthrop on Saturday, the Highlanders (6-15, 5-5 Big South) look to snap a three-game slide and keep pace for a place in the top half of the conference. The Panthers (11-13, 7-4 Big South) have dropped two in a row after falling on the road to Gardner-Webb 63-60, Saturday. Once tied for first place, High Point is now just one game in the win column ahead of Winthrop (6-4), Coastal Carolina (6-5) and UNC Asheville (6-5) in second.
