Women’s hoops loses at Akron

Shooting 34 percent from the field and 45 percent from the line won’t win many basketball games.
Unfortunately for the CMU women’s basketball team they found this out the hard way.
Despite an 18 point, 11 rebound effort from Vershaun Jones, the Chippewas fell to the University of Akron, 68-60 in Mid-American Conference action Saturday.
Jones also added four steals and senior center Shelly Woods dropped in 14 points and grabbed six boards.
The Zips were led by 21 points from Erica Glover on 8-13 shooting and 15 points and 10 boards from Cheryl Bowles.
Akron led 35-25 at the break, thanks in part to 61 percent shooting and 27 percent by the Chips.
Central falls to 8-1, 5-7 while Akron moves to 9-14, 5-7. CMU next plays in a 8 p.m. Thursday game against Northern Illinois in Rose Arena.
