Scouting The Opponents
 
TU will have to bring its A-game since it will go up against four All-SIAC Preseason First Teamers and four Preseason All-Conference Second Teams selections as well over the five matches.

Savannah State led the Eastern Division with three All-Preseason performers (Imani Williamson, Jeilynn Brown and Jedaiah Daniels), followed by a pair of student-athletes from Clark Atlanta (Kia Thomas and Lauryn Terry) and Benedict (Daija Walton and Ashleigh Reeves) plus one representative for Albany State (Jolesia McClenton).
