The Lions were dominant in the win to secure the ninth victory at home this season, closing out the regular season a perfect 9-0 inside Cave Arena. Piedmont now sits at 11-2 in conference play with three road games remaining in league play. 

Up next, the Lions will be on the road at Covenant for a CCS showdown on Tuesday, February 11.
