Both Lancaster Bible College basketball teams return home on Wednesday for the first time since November 28. The Bison of Gallaudet visit Lancaster [the women's team for the first time in school history], as the game has lots of NEAC South Division implications. The Gallaudet men will look to stay atop the NEAC South Division with a perfect record, while the Chargers' will look to avenge a 74-54 loss at the hands of the Bison on December 1. The LBC women can be the first NEAC South Division team to four wins with a victory over the Bison.
