Women’s Basketball Completes Four-Game Roadstand Tuesday at CCSU

LOUDONVILLE, NY - Siena Women's Basketball travels to New Britain, CT on Wednesday to take on the Central Connecticut Blue Devils which concludes the team's season-long four-game roadstand. Tip-off from Detrick Gymnasium is set for 4 p.m. 
 
Tuesday's game will air live on NEC Front Row, while Joe Puccio and Steve Amedio will have the call locally on WVCR 88.3 FM. Live stats and courtside X updates can be found by clicking the corresponding links. Those attending Tuesday's game will also be granted free admission.
 
Teresa Seppala turned in a solid showing in her season debut at Fordham on Saturday, scoring a team-high 15 points while adding five rebounds, three assists, and a pair of steals to her line. Saturday's game also saw Aniya Hooker net a career high nine points, as well as Zyriah Price bring down a career best seven rebounds in what was her first career start. 
 
The Blue Devils have struggled out of the gate this season with an 0-6 mark, which includes losses to future Siena opponents Manhattan (78-64), UMass (66-60), and Fairfield (82-54). CCSU's scoring has been balanced between Meghan Kenefick (11.8 PPG), Selina Monestime (10.5 PPG), Dagny Slomack (9.3 PPG), and Alonna Sellers (8.0 PPG), with Monestime and Slomack are each shooting over 44 percent from the floor. Turnovers have been problematic for the Blue Devils this season with the team's average of 19.5 per outing, ranking 282nd of 353 Division I teams. 
 
Siena and CCSU meet for the eighth time on Tuesday, with the Saints holding a 4-3 edge in the all-time series. The Saints won each of the first three meetings between the teams, including a pair in New Britain, before the Blue Devils rattled off three consecutive in 2010, 2011, and 2013. The teams last met on Nov. 19, 2014 at the UHY Center (then known as Alumni Recreation Center), with Siena pulling away to a convincing 79-57 win. 

Siena makes its long-awaited return home on Sunday, Dec. 1 to host University of Massachusetts Amherst at 2 p.m. from the UHY Center. Tickets for the team's first home game since Nov. 6 can be purchased here.
