Spartan basketball has never looked so good. With a 76-37 road win over its SoCon rival Mercer on Saturday, the women’s team extended its winning streak to 11 games, the longest since the 1996-97 season. The win gave the Spartans an all-time best conference record of 13-1, cementing their spot as sole owners of the regular-season title for just the second time in the program’s history.
