Saint Bonaventure vs. Radford

CLEVELAND (Interstat) — The Saint Bonaventure women’s basketball team looks to rebound from its first loss of the season when it faces Radford in a neutral-site non-conference game Friday at the Wolstein Center.

The Bonnies (5-1) saw their five-game winning streak snapped in a 62-53 home loss to Albany on Saturday. Aaliyah Parker led Saint Bonaventure with 18 points and seven rebounds in the defeat. The Bonnies’ strong start includes victories over Buffalo, Canisius and Binghamton.

Radford (5-3) enters on a three-game winning streak after a 68-61 home victory over Valparaiso on Wednesday. Cate Carlson paced the Highlanders with 15 points in that contest. Radford’s wins have come against mid-major opponents, while its losses have been on the road against Power Five programs Virginia, Georgia Tech and Wake Forest.

The game is part of a multi-team event in Cleveland. Saint Bonaventure will face Valparaiso at the same venue on Saturday, while Radford is scheduled to play Cleveland State on Saturday.

Friday’s matchup will be a test of Saint Bonaventure’s offense, which averaged 67.8 points during its winning streak, against a Radford defense that has held its last three opponents to 61 points or fewer.
