NORFOLK, Va. --
The Old Dominion women's basketball team will take on its first ranked opponent of 2018-19 when the Monarchs travel to No. 13 NC State on Sunday at 2 p.m. ET.

The game will be streamed on WatchESPN via ACC Network Extra. It will also be aired on ESPN 94.1 radio featuring commentary from Doug Ripley and Susan Montgomery.

Old Dominion has now had a week of rest and preparation for the 13th-ranked Wolfpack, after Thursday's game against Longwood was cancelled due to a campus bomb threat. 

Most recently, ODU was crowned Buccaneer Classic Champions in Charleston after defeating Jacksonville and Tennessee Tech in the Charleston Southern-hosted tournament.

As a team, the Monarchs are scoring 75.5 points per game, an over 20-point increase from last season, while committing just 12.7 turnovers per game, which is the 17th-best rate in the country.

ODU's last win over a ranked opponent came in 2009, when the Monarchs defeated No. 16 Virginia.
