Seven of the Catamounts 2011-12 opponents saw post-season play a year ago that includes third-seeded Purdue three others that advanced to the NCAA Mens Basketball Championship Field a sea- son ago. Western Carolinas 2011- 12 schedule culminates with the Southern Conference Mens Basketball Champi- onship as it makes its return to Asheville, N.C., and the Asheville Civic Center for the first-time since 1995. We are again fortunate to be able to assemble a very challenging and diverse non- conference schedule this year, said Hunter, whose squads have won SoCon North Division titles two of the past three seasons. We play teams from several of the power conferences, along with teams from the Missouri Valley, Mid-Amer- ican and Big South confer- ences. This is a schedule that will afford our team room for growth and development as we prepare for the rigors of the Southern Conference schedule, Coming off the programs third-straight winning sea- son, Western Carolina opens the 2011-12 campaign with . seven-straight games away from home to match the secs ; ond-longest such streak es- tablished one year ago when __ the Catamounts played sev- en-consecutive road games spanning, the month of De- cember. The season opens with a Friday night road trip to the Colonial Life Arena to face the South Carolina Gamecocks (Nov. 11). It will be the eighth all-time meet- ing (0-7) between WCU and USC - the second at the state-of-the-art Colonial Life Arena with the most re- cent meeting coming back in From Staff Reports ; Western Carolina head womens basketball coach Karen Middleton has an- nounced the 2011-12 sched- ule. - The 29-game slate. in- cludes 14 home dates and match-ups with five teams that played in postseason tournaments in 2011.

Middleton said. The four home games in November will be challenging competi- tion which will be exciting for Catamount fans. Five of our opponents participated in post season play last year. The Catamounts will face two teams who participated in the NCAA. Tournament including Southeastern Con- ference member Vanderbilt and Southern Conference foe Samford.

All told, the Catamounts return three of their top five scorers in Sumler (11.5 ppg), Mutombo (10.1 ppg) and freshman Brandon Boggs _ (7:7 ppg). We graduated some out- standing players, but also have some key performers "returning . and most of our | younger players gained alot of valuable experience last _ season, said Hunter. We : _ learned last season how im- portant winning some games in the non-conference part of the schedule can be. I am - looking forward to seeing how we handle this years challenges.
