Louisiana Draws Central Michigan in Round 2 of Women’s MAC-SBC Challenge

Road contest on February 10 completes Cajuns non-conference schedule
LAFAYETTE – The second round of games in the MAC-SBC Challenge was announced on Monday and the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Women's Basketball team was paired with Central Michigan.
The MAC women's basketball teams are hosting the February matchups. As a result, Louisiana will travel to Mount Pleasant, Michigan for the February 10 contest with Central Michigan at McGuirk Arena.
The first-ever meeting between the Cajuns and Chippewas is scheduled to tip off at 12:00 p.m. (CST).
The game is set to air of ESPN+ with radio coverage available on The GOAT 103.3 FM and 1420 AM in the Acadiana region and worldwide on the Varsity Network.
Matchups for Round 2 were set based on real-time NET rankings following the completion on play on January 20. The February games conclude the first year of a two-year scheduling alliance between the MAC and SBC – the inaugural games held back in November with the Sun Belt women's basketball teams hosting then.
Louisiana looks for a split in the MAC-SBC Challenge. In November at the Cajundome, it was Kent State flipping momentum in the first quarter and holding off each advance from the Cajuns thereafter to claim a 64-55 decision.
ABOUT THE MAC-SBC CHALLENGE
The MAC-SBC Challenge, a scheduling alliance in the sports of men's and women's basketball, was arranged to take place during the 2023-24 and 2024-25 campaigns. Each MAC and Sun Belt team included is guaranteed one home and one away game each season.
Scheduling assistance is provided by Ordinal Sports Group. In addition to relevant NET data, geography and frequency of past contests is considered in determining the matchups. The MAC-SBC Challenge comes at the recommendation of the Sun Belt's strategic planning committees for men's and women's basketball, as the conference looks to return to its roots and bolster its success on the hardwood.
