Clayton State Heads to USC Aiken Looking to Notch Longest Win Streak Since 2015-16

MORROW, Ga. – Clayton State (9-4, 5-2 PBC) women's basketball begins the return trip through the Peach Belt Conference as they head to USC Aiken (9-6, 5-4 PBC) on Saturday, January 19. Game time is set for 1:30 p.m. in Aiken, South Carolina.
 
The Lakers enter the weekend riding a five game winning streak dating to December 31, 2018. That stretch equals the club's longest such streak in each of the past two seasons and a sixth consecutive victory would make it the longest since 13 in a row during the 2015-16 campaign.

Clayton State leads the all-time series 22-14, dating back to the first meeting on November 20, 1995. They won that game 78-61 as the first of four straight. Among the Lakers' wins in the series history are an impressive 5-2 record against nationally ranked Pacer teams, including a 56-50 victory over a No. 3 ranked squad on January 16, 2013 in Aiken. Most recently the Lakers have taken eight of the last 11, but USCA notched a 67-58 decision in the earlier meeting this season on December 17, 2018.
