Final Stats

Slippery Rock, Pa. - Erin Frankovich, despite coming off the bench for the first time in her four-year collegiate career, had game-high totals of 16 points and nine rebounds Saturday afternoon to lead The Rock to a 67-52 win over Cheyney in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference "crossover" action.

The win snapped a six-game losing streak for The Rock, which now owns a 5-7 record and played for the second straight game without leading scorer and rebounder Stacey Green.

SRU enjoyed a 19-point, 37-18, lead at halftime and never led by less than 15 points until the final 30 seconds of action.

The Rock led by 24 points on two separate occasions midway through the final half.

Frankovich was the only Rock player to score more than 10 points, but 12 SRU players saw more than eight minutes of playing time.
