Tennessee Wesleyan was looking to stop a two-game a skid that had dropped their conference mark to 5-5 and, in the process, give Coach Stan Harrison career coaching victory number 500 in his 24-years at TWC.

Hitting four straight 3-point buckets that turned a narrow two-point lead into a 13-point bulge at the half, the Lady Bulldogs went on to defeat Union, 70-55.

"I'm glad to have that (500th win) behind us—I think it was beginning to wear little on the girls and I didn't want to carry that baggage on the road with us for the next two weeks," said Harrison. "Now maybe we can put all our focus on just winning games and positioning ourselves for the tournament."

Harrison was presented the game ball following the victory, along with a plague from the Appalachian Athletic Conference coaches honoring his achievement. The school will conduct a formal ceremony to honor Harrison on Feb. 11 during the final Saturday home date of the season against Brevard College.

In his career, Coach Harrison has averaged better than 21 wins per season, coached 11 conference  championships and appeared in 7 national tournaments.  Even more  impressive, is the 100% graduation rate of players who completed their eligibility requirements at TWC.  Coach Harrison's team has one senior, Ashley Keck.  The rest of the team is made up of Sophomores  and Freshmen.
