FROM THE SOURCE
Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"I am so happy for our women, particularly the seniors for having their first winning season since 2012-13. It was a total team effort, as the culture and play has continued to rise throughout the year. We finished 9 and 8 and 3 and 1 in the league, but were three points from being 12 and 5. We have a very young top three ladies and seniors helped with the depth. We can't wait for the tourney next week at Lehigh."
 
UP NEXT
The Raiders will now begin to prepare for the Patriot League Tournament which takes place from Friday, April 28 to Sunday, April 30 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
