GREENVILLE, S.C. (Interstat) — The Furman Paladins and Georgia State Panthers, both seeking to build momentum after tough road losses, will face off in a nonconference women’s basketball game Thursday at Timmons Arena.

Georgia State (1-1) enters the contest following a 62-88 defeat at Mississippi State last Friday. In that game, guard Crystal Henderson led the Panthers with 19 points and five assists. The Panthers showcased a potent offense in their season opener, a 108-59 rout of Oglethorpe.

Furman (1-2) is looking to rebound from a 48-96 loss at Vanderbilt on Monday. Alyssa Ervin paced the Paladins with 16 points in the defeat. Furman’s lone win came decisively against North Greenville, 85-27, but the team has struggled offensively in its two road games against Power Five opponents.

The matchup pits Georgia State’s early-season scoring prowess against a Furman squad aiming to establish consistency on its home court. Henderson’s playmaking for the Panthers will be a key focus, while Furman will rely on Ervin and Raina McGowens, who contributed 10 points and four assists against Vanderbilt.

Tipoff is set for Thursday night in Travelers Rest.
