HU’s win today put an end to its recent struggles. Next the team will face William & Mary, who is coming off a win of its own, on Jan. 20. On the other side, UNCW fell to 3-13 with the loss. The team will look for redemption in its next game against Elon, who is struggling as of late. That game is on Jan. 21.
