THEAMESTnY

The Fighting Scots have rebounded from a
seven game losing streak with two straight
wins in the PSAC West. The Boro defeated
Slippery Rock at home, 89-75, and Clarion
on the road, 95-84, last week. Edinboro
played an even smaller line-up than usual in
the victories, featuring four guards and a
510" forward. After averaging just 70.8
ppg., the Scots averaged 92.0 points in
their two wins. Megan Zitner and Wendy
Wiggins each registered double-doubles in
both wins. Edinboro lost to Indiana(Pa.) at
lUP in the last match-up just two weeks
ago, 89-75. lUP is coming off a loss to
Slippery Rock, 80-69. The game before,
lUP defeated the East's fifth-ranked team,
Shippensburg, 80-76. The Indians are 3-5
in the West and 11-11 overall. lUP is fifth
in the West, fighting for the top four spots
in the playoffs, along with the Boro.
Edinboro's late-season surge must continue
to keep playoff hopes alive. The Scots have
four games remaining in the West and play
three at home. Besides lUP, the Boro will
host Shippensburg and Lock, and travel to
Slippery Rock.

Edinboro has struggled to match up against
its taller opponents all year long. As of the
last two games, coach Stan Swank has
found his smallest formula to bring big suc­
cess. Edinboro snapped its seven game
losing streak with wins over Slippery Rock
and Qarion. His "Smurf" lineup, as Swank
refers to them, employs four guards and
just one forward. Courtney Thompson,

tZ AWAY FROM 1BKCTA RECORD

Krystal Henson, Wendy Wiggins, Jodi
Calderone, and Megan Zitner range

(75 for 201) this season, the second-best
total in Edinboro's record book. She stands
12 away from breaking Megan Miller's
record (86) set in 1998. Henson ranks sec­
ond for most three's in a career with 185
(trailing Megan Miller's record of 222). The
left-hander set a freshman record with 51
three-pointers in her rookie year and made
59 from downtown a year ago, ranking
third among all-time season totals. The tri­
captain is shooting 37.3 percent from
behind the arc. Henson leads the PSAC in
three-pointers made for the second season
in a row. She has scored 822 points in her
career at Edinboro, ranking 24th.

THE PSAC TODAT

A HCIHTiNe CHANCE AT THE PLAYOFTS
The Fighting Scots were winless in the
PSAC West this season until last Monday's
break-through win over Slippery Rock and a
follow-up win at Clarion.
The Scots
snapped a seven game losing streak and
improved to 2-6 in the West and 10-12
overall. Tied with Lock Haven for last
place, Edinboro faces four more West
opponents, with three in the friendly con­
fines of McComb Fieldhouse. The Scots
could move to 6-6 in the West, while the
rest of the bunch will battle out some tough
match-ups left on the schedule. Edinboro
hosts Indiana(Pa.), Shippensburg, and Lock
Haven, and travels to Slippery Rock.
Edinboro has qualified for the PSAC
Tournament each of the last two years and
five of the last six years.

The Fighting Scots fell to lUP in the first
match-up this year, after defeating the
Indians twice a year ago. The Boro trav­
elled to Indiana, dropping an 89-75 deci­
sion. The Indians' Jacquie Negrelli led all
scorers with 24 points, while Sarah Zdesar
added 20 points and 19 rebounds. Lachelle
Crawl led Edinboro with career-highs of 17
points and 10 boards. Krystal Henson and
Korie Morton contributed 14 points apiece.
lUP outrebounded Edinboro, 53-41, and
outscored the Scots at the free throw line,
35-15.
