WEST CHESTER, Pa. – For the second day in a row, the Edinboro University women's basketball team featured three scorers in double-figures, but Glenville State's sharp-shooting from beyond-the-arc proved too much to overcome as the Fighting Scots fell, 81-68, on Sunday afternoon. The Fighting Scots dropped to 0-2 on the season after wrapping up the two-day Carol Eckman Memorial Tournament, hosted by West Chester. The Lady Pioneers came out of the event sporting a 2-0 mark after defeating West Chester yesterday afternoon.
 
The 0-2 start is just the second time the Fighting Scots have started a season with two losses under head coach Stan Swank and the first time since the 1995-96 season.
 
Sunday's contest was back-and-forth much of the way as the score was tied five times and the lead changed hands 11 times. The deciding factor ultimately proved to be the 3-point shooting of the Lady Pioneers. Glenville State finished the contest hitting 14-of-28 3-pointers, the most 3-pointers against the Fighting Scots since the 2012-13 season when the Lady Pioneers also connected on 15 3-pointers in a victory.    
 
The Lady Pioneers opened up a 25-18 lead after the opening quarter thanks in part to five 3-pointers from four different scorers. After Ciara Rosten opened the scoring with a layup, Paris McLeod hit Glenville State's first 3-pointer of the contest. She followed that up with a layup to give Glenville State a quick 5-4 lead. Michaela Barnes scored the next four points of the game and Nicole Johnson connected on a jumper to give the Fighting Scots an 8-5 lead. The Lady Pioneers would answer with an 8-0 run to regain the lead at 13-8 and would end the quarter on a 10-1 run, featuring a pair of 3-pointers.

After falling behind 33-23 with 8:14 left to play in the half, the Fighting Scots engineered a 9-0 run to cut the deficit to just one point. Rosten scored five of the nine points. Glenville State was able to preserve the lead and take a 39-35 lead into the locker room at half.
 

Michelle Jahn entered the break as Edinboro's leading scorer with eight points as she connected on a pair of 3-pointers during the first half. Rosten had seven points and seven rebounds at the break and also picked up three steals.
 
Rosten scored the first four points of the second half to tie the game at 39-all a minute into the third quarter. The two teams would trade baskets the entire way through as both offenses put up 24 points in the third period. Edinboro would once again draw close in the final quarter, tying the game up at 68-68 with just over six minutes left to play. Glenville State would end the contest on a 13-0 run however, as the Fighting Scots were 0-of-11 over the final six minutes.
 
Rosten led the Fighting Scots with 15 points and eight boards. In addition, she blocked a pair of shots and dished out a pair of assists. Jahn finished the contest with 12 points and a team-high three 3-pointers. Jontay Walton was the final Fighting Scot to score in double-figures, adding 10 points off the bench. Barnes totaled nine points and four-steals. Katie Fischer also finished with four steals to go along with her seven points and four rebounds. Fischer had a clean game from her point guard spot, turning the ball over 0 times. Maggie Moore and Nicole Johnson both grabbed eight boards.
 
The Lady Pioneers were led by Julie Bishop with 16 points on 6-of-8 shooting, four of which were 3-pointers. Paris McLeod finished with a double-double, totaling 15 points and 10 rebounds. Kaelynn Wilson scored 12 points on 3-for-3 shooting from deep and Kristin DesRocher also added three 3-pointers to finish with 11 points.
