Trevecca faced Young Harris once, all the way back in 2011 when the Mountain Lions topped the Trojans 3-0. Though Union and Trevecca were longtime rivals in the NAIA and co-members of the TranSouth conference, they have only met eight times in the NCAA era with Union holding a 5-3 edge. Trevecca claimed three of the first four meetings, but the Bulldogs own a four-game win streak in the series.
