ST. JOSEPH - The Griffon women stay on the road this weekend with a trip to Kearney, Nebraska to take on Nebraska Kearney at 2 p.m. on Jan. 20. 

An ever-shrinking Griffon roster has lost its last five games overall and its last six MIAA contests. Missouri Western faces one of the top teams in the MIAA on Saturday, but one that needed two overtimes to hold off upset minded Northwest Missouri on Thursday. The Griffons won't find a break from the bus anytime soon.

NOTABLES

• Melia Richardson's 13-point performance at Fort Hays State Thursday night was her fourth-straight game scoring in double-figures. The junior guard has scored 10 or more in seven of her last eight games
• Rob Edmisson sits one win shy of his 100th as the head coach of the Griffons. In his sixth season at MWSU, Edmisson is 99-60 and 503-168 in his 22nd year as a collegiate head coach
• Missouri Western is making its first trip to Kearney since an 86-81 loss on Jan. 5, 2015. LaQuinta Jefferson scored a career-high 40 points in the game
• The Griffons played the final 35 minutes of Thursday's loss at Fort Hays State with just six available players
