North Carolina A&T stay perfect in conference in win over DSU Lady Hornets

GREENSBORO -- There is actually a way the N.C. A&T women's basketball team can fall short of postseason play. But figuring that out is probably harder than beating the Aggies.

In beating Delaware State 78-53 on Monday, A&T improved to 12-0 in the league and retained a three-game lead over Coppin State (9-3) with four to play. One more Aggie victory or one more loss by the Eagles or Hampton (8-4) clinches the regular-season title and at least a WNIT bid for A&T. The winner of the conference tournament gets the automatic NCAA tournament spot, but a safeguard ensures that any regular-season champion failing to win its league tournament will be invited to the WNIT. A&T hasn't been to postseason since it claimed the MEAC title in 1994.
