Penn State Shenango Women's Basketball put on an impressive display, cruising to an 83-46 victory over Penn State Greater Allegheny. From the opening tip, Shenango controlled the pace, relying on strong performances from key players and a balanced team effort. Shar'Da Williamson was the standout performer, recording a double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds while adding five steals and three assists in an all-around dominant effort. Williamson's ability to attack the basket and clean up on the boards set the tone for the Lions.
Supporting Williamson's efforts was Hailee Aguinaga, who tallied 12 points, six rebounds, and an impressive three blocks, anchoring the team's interior presence. Off the bench, Azaria Bryant Franklin provided a spark, delivering an efficient 12 points on a perfect 5-for-5 shooting performance in just eight minutes of play. Gabrielle King also made her mark as a reserve, contributing eight rebounds and eight points to round out a stellar team effort on the glass.
The Lions outmatched Greater Allegheny in rebounding, holding a 44-35 advantage, and their defensive pressure was relentless throughout the game. Shenango forced 25 turnovers, collecting 16 steals and disrupting Greater Allegheny's offensive flow. Though the Lions shot just 18.2% from beyond the arc, their aggressive play in the paint and ability to capitalize on fast-break opportunities compensated for any struggles from long range.
The win demonstrated Shenango's depth and teamwork, with four players reaching double figures and several others contributing key minutes. Head coach and fans alike were undoubtedly pleased with the team's energy and execution on both ends of the floor.
Penn State Shenango will look to build on this momentum when they return to action at home on Saturday, January 25th, for a 1 PM matchup against Penn State New Kensington. Fans are encouraged to come out and support the team as they aim to continue their winning ways.
