After Saturday's contest, Salem still has two regular season games remaining. The Tigers travel to nationally 18th-ranked Kentucky Wesleyan Tuesday and then play host to Ursuline College Thursday in a make-up game. Inclement weather and dangerous road conditions forced the postponement of the originally scheduled contest January 18.
