BRYANT UPDATE
THE GAME                                                           
The Bryant women's basketball team hosts the University of Bridgeport of the East Coast Conference Wednesday night at 6:00 p.m. in the Chace Athletic Center after Sunday's originally scheduled contest between the two teams, set to take place in Bridgeport, Conn., was postponed due to inclimate weather.

QUEENS OF THE KNIGHT                                    
The Bulldogs and the Purple Knights have met 12 times entering the 2007-08 season and Bryant holds the 8-4 (.667) advantage. The Bulldogs took last season's contest, a 78-57 win at home on Dec. 17, 2006, and the last time Bryant traveled to Bridgeport, it opened the 1996-97 season with a 76-73 win.

LAST TIME OUT                                                   
The Bulldogs took down their second Top-25 opponent of the season with a 59-53 win over No. 15 Stonehill College Wednesday night at the Chace Athletic Center. Behind a game-high 17 points from sophomore Kelsey O'Keefe, Bryant handed the Skyhawks their first loss of the year.
