Women’s Basketball Opens Season With Win Over Franciscan

STEUBENVILLE, OH - The University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg women's basketball team tipped off their 2021-22 campaign with a double-digit victory, 56-43, over Franciscan University, this afternoon at Finnegan Fieldhouse. 

Head coach Kelsey Oddis earned her first win at the helm of the Bobcats, kicking off her first season strong. 

Preseason Co-Player of the Year in the Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference, Nadege Durand led the way for the Bobcats. She poured in 17 points on 6-of-12 shooting and five free throws. 

Sidney McCully added 11 points and Shaquoia McCray pulled down a team high nine rebounds. 

The Bobcats led from start to finish, as they got off to a hot start winning the first quarter 22-11 on 60% shooting. 

Pitt-Greensburg worked the ball inside all game long, logging 20 points in the paint. 

Lockdown defense by the Blue and Gold kept them in control of the game and held the Barons to 28.6% shooting from the field. 

The Bobcats will host Carlow University in their home opener on Tuesday at 6 pm inside Chambers Hall. It will be the start of a three game non-conference home stand for Pitt-Greensburg.
