Detroit at Wright State
FAIRBORN, Ohio (Interstat) — Two Horizon League women’s basketball teams seeking momentum will meet Friday when the Detroit Titans visit the Wright State Raiders at the Ervin J. Nutter Center.
Detroit (4-8) enters the conference matchup following a high-scoring 86-80 home loss to Rochester on Monday. Wright State (5-10) looks to rebound from a lopsided 89-55 defeat against Green Bay on Tuesday.
The game features a compelling duel between standout guards. Detroit’s Jasmine Edwards is coming off a dominant 14-point, 15-rebound double-double in 35 minutes against Rochester. Over her last seven games, Edwards has averaged 11.3 points and 7.8 rebounds, providing consistent production for the Titans.
Wright State will counter with Breezie Williams, who scored a team-high 20 points in the loss to Green Bay. Williams has been a bright spot for the Raiders’ offense, averaging 9.6 points per game over her last five contests.
Both teams have struggled for consistency in non-conference play. Detroit’s season highlights include a 76-68 win over Cleveland State and a 74-69 victory against IU Indy. Wright State’s most notable win was a 61-57 triumph over Oakland on Dec. 3.
The Titans’ offense runs through Edwards and Makayla Jackson, who scored 23 points in the last outing. The Raiders will rely on Williams and Abbie Riddle, who added 15 points against Green Bay.
Friday’s contest opens the Horizon League schedule for both squads. Detroit will visit Northern Kentucky on Sunday, while Wright State travels to Cleveland State next Wednesday.
Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST at the Nutter Center.
