NORFOLK, Va. - The Old Dominion University women's basketball team returns home for three of their next four games beginning on Thursday night when they host Georgia State at 7 p.m. at the Ted Constant Convocation Center.

A COMEBACK FOR THE AGES
The last time Old Dominion and Georgia State met on the hardwood, the Lady Monarchs used one of the biggest comebacks in their illustrious history to pull out a victory in Atlanta on Jan. 6. Down 50-30 with 13:21 remaining, ODU closed out the game on a 42-16 run to stun the Panthers, 72-66. Ashley Betz-White, the CAA Rookie of the Year, was honored four times while freshman Becca Allison added 11 points, two rebounds and two assists but the Lady Monarchs were just 4-for-22 (18.2 percent) from behind the arc with all four treys coming from Younger.

The Lady Monarchs have forced 387 turnovers in 17 games this year (22.8 per game).
