YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women's basketball team opened its 2019-20 home campaign with one of the largest victories in program history, a 95-38 win over Olivet College, Friday, Nov. 8, inside the Convocation Center.

With the sweep of EMU's annual Education Day twin bill, the Eagles (1-1) have captured their 20th consecutive home opener, dating back to the 2000-01 season. The 57-point triumph marks the women's basketball program's sixth-largest margin of victory in Convocation Center history, and the third time in the last two seasons that EMU has held an opponent to fewer than 40 points at home.
