CHARLOTTE AMALIE, U.S. Virgin Islands (Interstat) — Two teams seeking to halt losing streaks will meet Friday when the Elon Phoenix face the North Dakota Fighting Hawks in a women’s NCAA Division I basketball game at the Paradise Jam tournament.

Elon (2-4) enters the contest following a narrow 64-61 loss to Tulane on Thursday. Tyana Walker led the Phoenix with 22 points and five rebounds in the defeat. North Dakota (1-6) is looking to rebound from a 65-45 loss to Boise State, also on Thursday. Mackenzie Hughes paced the Fighting Hawks with 15 points in that game.

The matchup features two struggling offenses. Elon has averaged 56.8 points per game this season, while North Dakota has averaged just 51.6 points. Both teams have found wins hard to come by early in the season, with the Phoenix having lost four of their last five and the Fighting Hawks riding a four-game skid.

Elon’s lone bright spot was a 93-48 victory over Presbyterian on Nov. 10. North Dakota’s single win came against Wyoming, 65-45, on Nov. 21.

The game is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 28, 2025, at Charlotte Amalie West.
