FAU women’s basketball (2-1) took down the Palm Beach Atlantic University Sailfish (1-2) 61-35 in their home-opener Monday night at the Eleanor R. Baldwin Arena in Boca Raton, Fla.
“This is a good bounce-back win for us after Miami,” said head coach Jennifer Sullivan. “We learned a lot from that game and tried to apply some of those lessons tonight, and I thought we did that.”
Redshirt junior guard Joiya Maddox got in rhythm early, sinking a three-point attempt on the game’s opening possession.
With 43 seconds remaining in the first quarter, junior guard Devyn Scott made two free-throws to leave the Owls with a 21-7 lead at the end of the quarter.
