Women back in SUNYAC Tournament

FREDONIA, N.Y. -- Fredonia State and Brockport will meet in a post-season game for the first time when they square off Tuesday in the first round of the SUNYAC Tournament.

The Blue Devils (10-13, 6-10 SUNYAC) will be facing a tough task when the teams meet 6 p.m. at Brockport. In two other meetings this season, Brockport has come out on top -- 62-48 on Nov. 28 at Brockport, 69-53 in the Steele Hall rematch Feb. 2.

Brockport was led in scoring in both games by Ashley Broadhurst, each time with 18 points. She was 7 of 11 from three-point range in the two games combined. For the Blue Devils, junior Cheryl Kindzia (Williamsville/Williamsville North) had 18 points in the first meeting and 13 in the second.

The Golden Eagles (19-6, 13-3 SUNYAC) enter the tournament as the No. 2 seed, behind only Cortland. The Blue Devils are the No. 7 seed.

Fredonia State is looking for its first SUNYAC Tournament win since upsetting Geneseo, 66-65, during the 2002-03 season. Their last win over Brockport came last season, 68-58.
