Penn State Behrend Lions Win Tenth Straight With Victory Over Storm
The
Penn State Behrend Lions (13-2, 8-1) continued their winning ways, earning their
tenth straight victory with a 48-44 victory over the Lake Erie Storm (4-10,
4-5) on
Thursday, January 18 in the Junker Center.
Behrend earned the four point victory by holding a spirited Lake Erie squad
to 28% shooting from the floor. The game was tied at 25 at the end of
the first half but the visiting storm could not get the shots to fall, and
made only nine of 33 chances in the second half.
Julia Andrus (Corry/Corry) was big on the night, coming through with a
double-double, pacing the squad with 17 points and 11 rebounds. Senior
Brittany Mays (Keystone/Knox) had 15 points, pushing her career number to
982 points scored. Meagan Bielanin (Erie/Mercyhurst Prep) also
contributed to the win by grabbing eight rebounds and handing out five
assists.
Lake Erie was led by Amanda Stover's nine point, four rebound night and Loni
Sargent's four point, eight rebound effort.
The Behrend Lions remain tied for first in the AMCC and will host Frostburg
State on Saturday, January 20 at 2:00 p.m. in the Junker Center.
