The third-seeded Profs (16-9, 12-6 NJAC) take on the sixth-seeded Scarlet Raptors, a team Rowan defeated twice this season, including a thrilling double overtime win here in Glassboro back on January 28th, and a 65-59 decision in Camden back on December 3rd.
Rowan won four of its last five games to close out the regular season, capped by a 70-60 victory over Stockton on Wednesday to help sew up the third seed. Rutgers-Camden took down New Jersey City, 86-59, to snap a two-game skid. A win on Saturday sends the Brown and Gold to second-seeded TCNJ for a NJAC Semifinal Showdown on Tuesday.
The Profs will be looking to advance to the semifinal round for the first time since the 2022-23 campaign, where the team went on to capture its eighth NJAC title. Freshman
Megan Donelson is putting together a nice rookie campaign, as she leads the team in steals (33) and is second on the team in scoring (8.6 ppg), assists (48), and third in rebounding (6.0 rpg).
