Penguins blew out WGB tonight 82-58. YSU got the FT and 3 ball going. When was the last time we won 2 road games in a row (especially in the same state)?

Guys moved their feet well on D and crashed the boards.   Thought the good defense led to offense . Contributions from many so call it a team win instead of one guy carrying them.

Just got caught up watching the game.  Complete team win.  Played well on offense and defense.  Liked seeing Akuchie dominant in the paint in the first half- reminded me of Naz in years past.  Was disappointed again in the 3-point shooting in the first half, but turned the tables in the second half.  Looks like this YSU team is really good shooting FT.  Think they went 36-40 on this road swing. 

I was really disappointed when YSU was only up 32-30 late in the first half- felt like they played well enough to be up double digits just missed a lot of open looks.  Then YSU closed the half on an 8-1 run and opened the 2nd half on an 11-0 run, and that was all she wrote.  I've seen that happen a lot to YSU over the years so it was nice to see the roles reversed. 

Good to start to conference play with 2 wins on the road.  Central Michigan, Canisius, Westminister & WVU up next to close out non-conference play.   Would like to see YSU go 3-1; central Michigan and Canisius don't appear to be very good
