Women's Basketball: No. 7 Campbellsville (15-2, 2-1 MSC) vs. Cumberlands (10-5, 2-1 MSC)
 
The Lady Tigers are coming off a 64-57 victory over No. 23 University of Pikeville on Saturday afternoon while both programs are in the middle of a five-game 10-day stretch of conference games. Campbellsville will host Georgetown College on Thursday, Jan. 12 and No. 10 Shawnee State on Saturday, Jan. 14. Next week, CU hits the road at Life University on Wednesday, Jan. 18, to finish the 10-day conference stretch.

In the 64-57 win over UPIKE, CU pushed its season-high win streak to nine games after tallying double-digit scoring from four Lady Tigers. Madison Clements and Emily Fox both pitched in 18 points, while Jordan Doram scored 16 and Abby Miller missed a double-double with 10 points and team-high nine rebounds.
 
Fox, who went 5-of-11 overall and hit 2-of-5 from 3-point land, surpassed 200 3-point baskets in her career. She currently ranks No. 5 in Lady Tiger basketball history with 201 careers 3s.
 
Doram, a sophomore from Georgetown, Ky., has sparked the Lady Tigers in the paint. With big shoes to fill coming into the season, Doram has answered the call by averaging 10 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. In the last four games, Doram has scored in double-figures with a career-high 21 points vs. Johnson and Wales on Dec. 30.
 
With the series dating back to the 1978-77 season, Campbellsville and Cumberlands are meeting for the 101^st time in history with the Lady Tigers leading the series, 65-35. CU had defeated Cumberlands in six straight games but the Patriots upset the Lady Tigers last season in the O. Wayne Rollins Center with a 60-56 victory.
 
Both coaches – Ginger Colvin and Melissa Irvin – are ranked in the Top 14 of most wins for active NAIA head coaches. Irvin enters Monday with a 409-209 (.661) record, while Colvin is 259-68 (.792). Colvin surpassed the 250-win mark earlier in the season with a victory over Talladega on Nov. 21. Irvin punched her ticket to the 400-win club with a victory Universidad Interamericana in Puerto Rico, 64-50.
 
Men's Basketball: Campbellsville (9-6, 1-2 MSC) vs. No. 20 Cumberlands (13-3, 1-2 MSC)
 
The men's game has a little more on the line for both programs. CU and UC are both 1-2 inside the Mid-South Conference and neither want to go 1-3 in arguably the best conference in the NAIA. But this game also means more for coaches Brent and Mark Vernon.
 
First-year head coach Brent Vernon played golf and basketball for the Patriots before graduating in 2005. Mark Vernon worked under UC's Donnie Butcher for 14 years before being hired at Campbellsville in the summer of 2016. Their father, Randy Vernon, was the long-time basketball coach at UC (1979-2000) before being promoted to director of athletics. He retired from UC in the summer of 2016 after being involved in the athletics department for over 37 years.
 
The history of these two programs dates back before the Vernons. CU and Cumberlands played for the first time on Dec. 4, 1964 with Campbellsville winning the first game, 88-70. In 2010, CU defeated the Patriots, 83-80, to claim the MSC regular season title and then backed that up in 2015 with a 72-69 victory to win the programs second MSC tournament title.
 
Cumberlands enters as the best 3-point shooting team in the conference at almost 42 percent. UC has four players hitting over 40 percent from the 3-point line, while CU's Hagen Tyler is the lone Tiger to hit over 40 percent at 44.4.
 
CU is coming off a 76-60 loss to No. 13 UPIKE on Saturday afternoon. Hagen Tyler scored 22 points to lead the Tigers but the Bears out-shot CU by almost 24 percentage points (51% to 37.5%).
