The Pioneers were up 43-37 at the half, but were able to pull away by out-scoring the Ravens 30-12 in the third quarter expanding a lead the Ravens couldn't catch up with. They scored 31 of their points off of turnovers by the Ravens and 10 points coming off the bench.
"It was great to be back in the Beck Center after being road warriors in 2023. Offensively, this was our best performance of the year and we were effective both on the perimeter and in the paint," said Head Coach Dr. Juli Fulks.
The team will be back in Beck next Wednesday for a home game against HCAC #2 Hanover for a 7:00 PM tipoff.
