The Penn State- Behrend women's

matchup of the year, defeating Pitt-

The win moves the Lions ahead to
9-2, while setting their AMCC con
ference record to 1-0.
The Lady Lions played tenacious
defense the whole game, plugging the
passing lanes and creating steals and
turnovers, which in turn led to offen
sive buckets.
"We create a lot of turnovers from
our defense. I think our defense cre
ates a spark for our offense," said se
nior captain Emily Marini.
The game started out close for the
first five minutes of the half until the
Lady Lions went on a 14-0 run,
sparked by their pressure defense
which put them ahead 22-7. From that
point on, the Lions never looked back
as they closed out the first half lead-
"We played
awesome defense
the entire game.
That helped us
get turnovers and
easy buckets"
