Penn State women’s basketball opens season with emphatic win over Long Island

Only trailing for 14 seconds all night, Penn State looked strong in its season opening victory over LIU.

The Lady Lions defeated the Sharks by a score of 85-66 in their first home game of the season.

Leading the way for the blue and white was sophomore forward Ali Brigham. She tallied 20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in her first game as a Penn Stater.

Brigham was a consistent force down low for the Lady Lions, something the team will need this season if they want to achieve its goals.

The first half was a close contest as Penn State led by 11 points at the half.
