NEW ORLEANS - The Green Wave open their home women's basketball schedule Tuesday against Georgia Tech at 7 p.m. at Fogelman Arena. Tulane will unveil its 2006-07 Conference USA regular season championship banner and celebrate its WNIT second round appearance prior to the game. Both teams enter at 1-0 on the young season.

The Green Wave have won seven-straight at Fogelman Arena, dating back to a January 7 loss to Rice last season. The streak ties for the seventh-longest in school history.

In Tulane's season-opening win at Alabama Saturday, the Green Wave received a career-high tying 18 points from junior point guard Ashley Langford, while sophomore guard Chassity Brown set a new career-best with 15 points, including 9-for-10 from the free throw line. Senior forward Dominique Philpots rejected a pair of shots as Tulane prevailed 64-56.

The Green Wave shot 72 percent in the second half against the Crimson Tide, connecting on 13-of-18 from the field. Alabama cut a 14-point second half lead to just a five point margin, but Tulane slammed the door by hitting 12-of-15 second half free throws.
