HOUSTON - The Rice women's basketball team (6-5) returns from a two-week hiatus due to final exams by facing off against Rider (4-6) Thursday in a non-conference tilt at Houston Baptist's Sharp Gym.

"It's been hard to have any kind of continuity with our practices during the break," head coach Greg Williams said. "We've been short-handed and have tried to give our players some much-needed rest. Our preparation for Rider has been good and hopefully we'll duplicate our performance from TCU. We were highly energized that night and that reflected on how we played."

Tip-off against the Broncs is on-tap for 7pm at HBU's Sharp Gym. All Rice fans in attendance will receive Thundersticks.

KTRU 91.7 FM and RiceOwls.com will have all of the action live with the pregame show beginning at 6:45pm CT. GameTracker also will provide live stats available on RiceOwls.com
