THE EAGLES
- The Eagles won a share of the NACC North regular season title last weekend after splitting with Wisconsin Lutheran College. The two teams needed to go down several tiebreakers until one team emerged and that was the Warriors due to their better league road winning percentage.

- Edgewood College is 7-7 all time in NACC Tournament games and 2-0 under head coach Chaia Huff. Last season, the Eagles won their first ever NACC Tournament title, defeating Wisconsin Lutheran in the semifinals and Benedictine in the championship.

- The Eagles posted a 9-1 league record thanks to an extremely balanced and efficient attack offensively. Edgewood College leads the conference shooting 43.1 percent from the floor. Three Eagles are averaging double figures – Alyssa Lemirande (13.1), Emma Klein (10.4), and Bria Lemirande (10.1) – this season.

- Bria and Alyssa Lemirande also are stat leaders in the NACC this season. Bria, the Eagles point guard, leads the conference in rebounding (11.2 per game), while Alyssa leads the NACC with 4.4 assists per contest. Alyssa Lemirande also ranks fourth in shooting percentage (56.9).
 
THE FALCONS
- CUW finished with a 6-4 league record to earn the No. 3 seed in the NACC North standings. The Falcons needed a win on the final day over of the regular season over MSOE to secure a tournament berth, and did so with a 69-59 victory behind 27 points from Emily Hafemann.

- The Eagles have won the last four in the series against Concordia Wisconsin, including both games this season. Edgewood College posted a 79-58 win on February 10 and then picked up a 69-45 victory on February 23. Both regular season games were played at Concordia Wisconsin.

- CUW has made the NACC Tournament 15-straight years, one of two schools (Wisconsin Lutheran) to make each and every league tournament. CUW won the tournament title in both 2007 and 2009.
