For the second consecutive game, the women’s basketball team was defeated.
Sunday’s loss to Duquesne wasn’t anything like Buffalo’s loss 79-36 against Hofstra. The Bulls (6-2) held a lead for a large portion of the games against the Dukes Sunday. They were hitting their shots, playing with confidence and moving the ball around to the open shooter.
Then the second half came around and Buffalo’s biggest flaw was exposed: lack of a true post presence.
The success of the team last year fell on forwards Kristen Sharkey and Christa Baccas because they were stalwarts in the paint.
