Siena at Army
WEST POINT, N.Y. (Interstat) — The Army women’s basketball team looks to continue its unbeaten start to the season when it hosts Siena on Thursday night at Christl Arena.
The Black Knights (2-0) are coming off a 67-61 road victory over Saint Thomas (Minn.) on Saturday. Kya Smith led the way with a double-double, scoring 20 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. Reese Ericson added 12 points in the win. Army opened its season with an 86-50 rout of Pace.
Siena (0-2) seeks its first win after falling 84-73 at Massachusetts on Saturday. Despite the loss, Francesca Schiro turned in a standout performance with 28 points, six assists and four rebounds. The Saints’ season began with a 53-43 home loss to Colgate.
The matchup pits Army’s early-season momentum against a Siena team searching for its offensive rhythm. Schiro, who averages 28 points through two games, will be the primary focus for the Black Knights’ defense.
Following this contest, Army travels to face Oregon on Sunday. Siena returns home to host Dartmouth on the same day.
