Lafayette at Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH (Interstat) — The Pittsburgh Panthers look to build on their winning momentum when they host the Lafayette Leopards in a nonconference women’s basketball game Tuesday at Petersen Events Center.

Pittsburgh (4-2) is coming off a 63-54 home victory over Robert Morris this past Saturday. Mikayla Johnson led the way with 20 points, while Angel Jones added 14 points and three assists. The Panthers have won three of their last four contests.

Lafayette (3-3) enters on a two-game winning streak, most recently edging Wagner 56-53 last Thursday. Teresa Kiewiet scored a team-high 15 points in that victory, with Talia Zurinskas adding 14 and Haylie Adamski contributing 13. The Leopards’ three losses have come on the road.

The game is the first of a two-game homestand for Pittsburgh before they travel to a tournament in Naples, Florida. Lafayette continues a stretch of four consecutive road games.
