DAVIDSON, N.C. -- Coming off an impressive 28-point win over Chattanooga Saturday, Davidson looks to remain unbeaten in SoCon play with a 7 p.m. tip this evening at Western Carolina.
WILDCAT UPDATE
- The Wildcats enter tonight's contest 10-6 overall and 8-0 in the league after claiming their sixth straight and 18th consecutive SoCon regular season victory. In their last outing, Stephen Curry outscored the Mocs in the opening period with 27 of his game-high 37 points. Jason Richards (13), Boris Meno (12) and Andrew Lovedale also added double figures in the effort.
- Curry's 37-point performance was just one point shy of tying his personal best and marked the seventh time in his brief career he has hit the 30-point plateau.

The 6-3 shooting guard also ranks among national leaders in three-pointers per game (T-7th / 4.0) and free-throw percentage (24th / 87.9 percent). The SoCon Preseason Player of the Year has reached double figures in 43 consecutive.

- To go along with its current streaks, Davidson has claimed 13 straight conference road games.
