Furman leads at 12-2 after a Monday night win at VMI. ETSU is second at 10-3 followed closely by UTC and UNCG at 9-4. Wofford rounds out the top 5 with an 8-6 mark.
The Mocs are shooting for a school-record 18th road win over two seasons. It would be the 25th over the last three. The program had 26 road wins the previous seven campaigns before this run.
They face a VMI squad that won the earlier meeting in Chattanooga 80-64.
