Lynchburg, Va. -- University of Lynchburg athletics and head women's basketball coach Abby Pyzik Smith are thrilled to announce the Hornets' 2019-20 game schedule.
Lynchburg's slate features 10 home dates and a pair of trips south for tournaments against some of the top competition in NCAA Division III.
The Hornets will tip off the 2019-20 season at home in Turner Gymnasium, Sunday, Nov. 10 against Meredith at noon.
Lynchburg will then hit the road for its next four contests, including a weekend trip to Emory University's season-opening tournament in Atlanta, Ga., and the following Wednesday, Nov. 20, the Old Dominion Athletic Conference opener at Hollins.
The Hornets will close out November at home with a Nov. 25 date with ODAC foe Eastern Mennonite, and they will remain in Lynchburg for conference play through early December, heading across town to clash with Randolph and welcoming Emory & Henry to town.
The holidays will take Lynchburg south again, this time to Daytona Beach, Fla., where tournament dates with Hood and Marymount await. The team will then return to Virginia to open up the new year in a return to ODAC play at Randolph-Macon Jan. 2.
Home dates with Johns Hopkins and Guilford follow, and Lynchburg will also play host to Washington and Lee, Bridgewater, and Hollins to round out January.
February brings Virginia Wesleyan, Ferrum, and Randolph-Macon to Lakeside Drive before the team gears up for postseason play. The ODAC tournament is scheduled for Feb. 27-March 1 at its usual home, the Salem Civic Center.
The Hornets are looking to improve on a 13-13 campaign a year ago, one that included a trip to the Old Dominion Athletic Conference tournament. Lynchburg returns all but two players from that team.
