Syracuse, NY-

The Bryant & Stratton College- Syracuse Women's Basketball team defeated Fisher College, 88-19 on Saturday afternoon.  The victory for the Lady Bobcats maintains their perfect record and improves their record to 5-0 on the season.

 

How it happened:

For the first time this season, the Bryant & Stratton College- Syracuse Women's Basketball team played at home in front of the Lady Bobcat fanbase.  The energy at the Tipperary Hill Community Center for the team was tangible and the Lady Bobcats fed off the energy all night. 

The Lady Bobcats opened the game with a 28-0 run and only allowed 2-points to the visitors just before the ending of the 1st quarter.  In the 2nd quarter, the Lady Bobcats continued to extend their lead and headed into halftime leading 45-10.

Throughout the 2nd half, several Bryant & Stratton College- Syracuse players knocked down shots and ensured the victory for the Lady Bobcats.  Leading the way for the Lady Bobcats were Jehiah Cook (25 points), Eunice Sillong (18 points), and Suliat Afolabi (17 points).

Despite the scoreboard, the visiting Fisher College Falcons continued to play hard throughout the game, but were outmatched versus the Lady Bobcats.  The final score on the evening was 88-19.

"Playing at home in front of our fans really energized our team today," said Head Coach Quantae Elijah following the victory.  "I know that our girls were excited to be on our home court and they did a great job using that energy to jump on top early.  It feels great to get our first win at home, but we have some things to clean up before a couple tough games this coming week."

 

Next Game:

The Lady Bobcats have a quick turnaround with their next game on the road Tuesday evening versus NCAA DIII opponent, Cazenovia College at 5:30pm.
