The Opening Tip
• Longwood opens a three-game home stand Mon­day, as the Lancers host Cairn inside Willett Hall. Monday's game will mark the final non-conference game of the season, as the Lancers host UNC Asheville Dec. 31 at 7 p.m.
• Longwood is 2-0 on the season against Division III oponnents, as the Lancers earned wins over Randolph and LaRoche to open the season. Long­wood also posted a win over Hampden-Sydney in its lone exhibition game this year.
• Sophomore guard Kanayo Obi-Rapu (13.0 ppg., 2.5 rpg.) is day-to-day with a leg injury suffered at George Mason. Redshirt senior point guard Tra'Vaughn White (9.2 ppg., 2.2 rpg.) missed the last seven games, before returning to the lineup against Dartmouth.  

Last Time Out
• Longwood fell victim to hot shooting by The Big Green at Dartmouth as freshman forward Evan Boudreaux and sophomore guard Miles Wright each neared double-doubles en route to a 78-54 victory over the Lancers.
• The big night from Boudreaux and company ne­gated the third double-double performance of the season from Longwood big man Lotanna Nwog­bo, who finished the night with 17 points and 11 boards.
• Longwood was never able to get on track due to Boudreaux sparked an 11-0 run to start the game. The performance for Boudreaux, who paced Dat­mouth with a team-high 17 points, led the way as four players for Dartmouth finished in double fig­ures.

By The Numbers
• In Longwood's last meeting against Division III La­Roche, Kanayo Obi-Rapu tallied a game-high 27 points, finishing 10-of-14 from the floor and 5-of-8 from beyond the arc.
Leron Fisher one of only five Big South players averaging at least 10.0 points, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game. He ranks second in the confer­ence with 4.4 assists per game, seventh with a 1.4 assist-to-turnover ratio, 13th with 1.2 steals per game and 22nd with 11.6 points per game.
• Fisher, who led the Big South in steals and steals per game last season, has recorded at least one steal in nine straight games.
• Redshirt sophomore forward Khris Lane leads all Big South big men with 30.1 minutes per game. The 6-6, 235-pound Drexel transfer is one of only two players in the league averaging at least 10.0 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.
• Longwood Big South Preseason All-Conference center Lotanna Nwogbo is one of only two Big South players averaging at least 13.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game. He joins reign­ing Big South Player of the Year John Brown of High Point on that list.
• A transfer prior to the 2013-14 season, Nwogbo has scored in double figures in 21 of his 29 games as a Lancer. He is averaging 13.4 points per game in his two seasons at Longwood, compared to the 1.9 he averaged in two seasons at Tulane.
• Senior forward Shaquille Johnson has recorded two double-doubles in his three games since re­turning to the lineup. A 2015 Big South All-Tourna­ment Team selection, the 6-5, 220-pound Johnson has four double-doubles in his past six games dat­ing back to the 2014-15 season.
