Shooting nearly 60% from beyond the arc, the UB Women’s Basketball team picked up a victory over Syracuse, 88–79, in the final round of the Battle 4 Atlantis Tournament. Buffalo is now 2–2 for the season.
It was the Bulls’ first victory over a Power 5 Conference team since Buffalo beat Rutgers in 2019 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. It was Buffalo’s first victory over Syracuse since 1997, and the first time the two Western New York had played each teams other since 2011.
The Bulls were led, as they usually are, by junior guard Dyaisha Fair and super-senior Summer Hemphill.
