2010 YSU Women’s Basketball Preview

Friday, November 12th, 2010

I'll throw the prediction out there first. The YSU Lady Penguins are going to win 10 games this season.  Someone unfamiliar with the programs recent tailspin would scoff at a ten win season.  Those who haven't seen this program celebrate a victory since 2008 understand that a few wins ...

Loyola Women Escape Youngstown With A 63-59 Victory

Friday, February 5th, 2010

It would be unfair to use every old adage in the book to describe how close the YSU Women were to their first victory.  Unfortunately for the Lady Penguins, the last couple of possessions were catastrophic and Loyola (11-10, 5-5) escaped Youngstown with a 63-59 triumph in a competitive game that went ...
