The No. 19 West Texas A&M University Lady Buff basketball team returns home for the second-to-last regular season home game on Tuesday night, when the Lady Buffs host Abilene Christian University in a Lone Star Conference South Division clash. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. at the First United Bank Center.

WTAMU will be trying to "Pack The First United Bank Center," trying to establish a large attendance mark, pushing the arena's largest crowd of 4,941 on opening night, ironically, against Abilene Christian back on Jan. 26, 2002.

The Lady Buffs are 20-3 overall and 9-1 in LSC South play, currently sitting in a two-way tie for first-place atop the division standings with Angelo State University, who WTAMU plays Saturday night at San Angelo, Texas.

The Lady Buffs have reached the 20-win plateau for the fourth-straight season and 19th time in WTAMU head coach Bob Schneider's 25 seasons.

WTAMU has a perfect 10-0 ledger at home this season and the Lady Buffs are on a 14-game home winning streak.

WTAMU is ranked No. 19 in the Women's Basketball Coaches Association Division II Poll, slipping a spot from last week after splitting two games last week. The Lady Buffs are No. 3 in the NCAA-II South Central Regional Rankings, which determine the 8-team field for the South Central Regional Tournament.
