Women’s Basketball Dominates The Boards In Victory Over Franciscan

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio- Jenna Cole and Kelsey Oddis each posted double-doubles to lead the Pitt-Greensburg women's basketball team to a 52-37 victory over Franciscan Wednesday evening.

Pitt-Greensburg held a 13-12 lead after the opening quarter but put the game away with a dominating effort in the second and third quarters of play. The Bobcats outscored the Barons 33-17 over the 20 minute span and held Franciscan to single digit scoring outputs in the final three quarters.

Neither team shot the ball well on the evening as Pitt-Greensburg was 25.4% from the floor and the Barons hit just 26.7% from the field, but the Bobcats dominated the boards as well as from the free-throw line to propel them to victory. Pitt-Greensburg outrebounded Franciscan 58-32, including 25-11 on the offensive glass and went 19-of-26 from the charity stripe, while holding Fransican to just 2-for-2.

Oddis paced the Bobcats with 13 points off the bench and completed the double-double hauling down 10 rebounds, while Cole had 10 points and 13 rebounds, seven of which came on the offensive glass. Sylvia Stuart also put together a nice game for Pitt-Greensburg scoring 10 points and adding eight rebounds.

Sarah Schriner paced the Barons with a game-high 18 points on 7-of-20 from the field in 38 minutes of action.

Pitt-Greensburg started the game on a 6-2 run over the opening three minutes of the first quarter but Fransican would come back and take its first lead of the contest 12-11 on a jumper by Kaitlyn Sonneberger with just over a minute remaining.

Lyndy Baer connected on two free-throws with 34 seconds left in the quarter to give the lead back to the Bobcats as they would head into the second stanza.
Pitt-Greensburg led for the entire second quarter with its largest lead coming with 38 seconds left on two free-throws by Cole.

Fransican would cut the deficit to five early on in the second half, but Pitt-Greensburg would go on for the victory holding the Barons to just 17 second-half points.

The Bobcats return to the floor Saturday when they play host to Hilbert for Senior Day. Tip-off on Saturday is scheduled for 1:00 p.m.
