MILLERSVILLE, Pa. -
The Shippensburg University basketball teams will be in action this evening on the road at Millersville University in PSAC Eastern Division contests from Pucillo Gymnasium. The women's game is set to begin at 6 p.m. and the men's contest will start at 8 p.m. Tickets are $6 for adults and $3 for non-PSAC students.

The women's game will be a battle of the top two teams in the pre-season PSAC Eastern Division Coaches Poll. Shippensburg (8-7, 2-0 PSAC East) has had two consecutive strong second-half performances in conference victories over Mansfield and East Stroudsburg. Millersville (11-4, 0-2 PSAC East) has struggled of late and lost both of its conference contests thus far.

In the men's game, Shippensburg (8-7, 0-2 PSAC East) will be looking to end a four-game losing streak after falling victim on Saturday to a strong East Stroudsburg squad, 88-84 in double overtime. Millersville (6-9, 0-2 PSAC East) is back home after a four-game road trip and also looking for its first PSAC Eastern Division victory this season.
