Howard at VCU

RICHMOND, Va. (Interstat) — The undefeated Howard Lady Bison will put their perfect start to the test on the road Monday against the VCU Rams at the Siegel Center.

Howard (4-0) is coming off a 56-46 victory at Elon on Saturday, powered by a double-double from Zennia Thomas, who had 12 points and 10 rebounds. Ariella Henigan added a team-high 14 points in the win. The Lady Bison’s early season success includes road wins over George Washington and Providence.

VCU (2-1) looks to build momentum after a hard-fought 81-77 home win over Maine on Friday. Katarina Knezevic led the Rams with 19 points, while Cyriah Griffin added 16. The Rams’ lone loss was a 74-40 defeat at Villanova on Nov. 9.

The matchup pits Howard’s unblemished record against a VCU team seeking a statement victory on its home court before embarking on a three-game trip to Hawaii. Howard continues its challenging road stretch with a game at Monmouth on Thursday.
