PSU DuBois Falls To Penn State Beaver
The PSU DuBois Lady Lions (2-4) dropped an 84-61 decision to defending USCAA National Champion and PSUAC foe PSU Beaver on Tuesday. Beaver jumped out to a commanding lead, 22-4 in the first eight minutes of the ball game. But the Penn State DuBois countered with a dominating run of their own by outscoring Beaver 25-8 over the next ten minutes making the score 30-29 a minute before halftime. After halftime, DuBois' early second half turnovers and Beaver's shooting improved to help Beaver pull away from the DuBois squad in the second half.
