THE OPPONENTS
DAVIS & ELKINS (5–7, 2–3 MEC)
2025–26 Season
Davis & Elkins enters Wednesday night hovering right around .500 in both overall and conference play, having played one of the more balanced schedules in the MEC to this point. The Senators average 82.8 points per game and have outscored opponents by a slim margin on the season, often relying on efficiency and depth rather than tempo.
D&E has been particularly competitive at home, where they've shown the ability to stretch the floor, share the ball, and capitalize on turnovers. Their offense shoots 46.6% from the field and moves the ball well, averaging over 13 assists per game.
What to Watch
- A physical frontcourt that rebounds at a similar rate to opponents
- Multiple double-figure scorers capable of taking over stretches
Wednesday's matchup presents a classic MEC road challenge — a disciplined opponent, a tight gym, and a team comfortable playing close games deep into the second half.
WEST VIRGINIA WESLEYAN (0–11, 0–5 MEC)
2025–26 Season
While the record may not reflect it, West Virginia Wesleyan continues to search for its breakthrough moment in conference play. The Bobcats have been competitive in stretches but have struggled to sustain momentum, particularly when games speed up.
Wesleyan averages 71.2 points per game, but opponents have capitalized heavily on turnovers, scoring more than 25 points per game off miscues. The Bobcats play hard, rebound with effort, and are still capable of knocking down perimeter shots when rhythm is established.
What to Watch
Saturday's game marks a chance for Wesleyan to test Glenville inside the Waco Center, while the Pioneers look to protect home court and continue building conference momentum.
