COACH George Ivory (57-92 in fifth season at UAPB and overall)

CHALK TALK UAPB is going for its fifth consecutive victory, which would be its second longest streak since Coach George Ivory took over in 2008. The Golden Lions won seven consecutive games in 2010 on their way to an NCAA Tournament appearance and have won five consecutive two other times. A victory today would keep UAPB alone in second place in the SWAC standings.
