LEADING OFF – VMI (9-7, 2-2) hits the road for one of its longest conference trips of the season when it travels to Mercer and The Citadel to complete the second week of January. The Keydets take on the Bears Thursday night in Macon at 7 pm, then wrap up the road swing with a Saturday afternoon encounter with conference rival The Citadel at 1 pm. VMI will be looking to snap a two-game skid after winning six of seven games through January 1. The Keydets suffered their first home loss of the season Saturday 72-56 to UNCG after shooting a season-low 34.6% from the floor. Thursday night's game will be the second straight regular season meeting between the teams in Macon as last year's game in Lexington was canceled because of COVID-19 issues. Mercer and VMI also met in the 2021 SoCon tournament semi-finals. Mercer is 8-8, 1-1 after falling at Furman 88-61 on Saturday. The Bears have dropped three out their last four after winning four straight games through mid-December.
