PIKEVILLE, Ky. -- The University of Pikeville men's and women's basketball teams head to one of the toughest places to play in the Mid-South Conference when they visit Cumberlands in Williamsburg on Saturday.
A live stream is available via the UC Sports Network.
The No. 12 UPIKE men are coming off a 12-point home win over No. 5 Georgetown, while the women snapped a six-game losing streak with a seven-point win over the Tigers on Saturday.
UPIKE and Cumberlands are set to meet for the 133rd time in the men's series. The Patriots have the all-time edge at 82-50, but over the past eight seasons Pikeville has put together a 9-7 record.

In the last meeting, UPIKE won 67-66 behind 19 points from Darrion Leslie last season.

UPIKE is 6-3 in the last nine outings, including wins in both regular-season matchups a season ago. The Bears have won five straight games in the series, last losing on Dec. 4, 2014 at home.
