Mastodon WBB Cruises to 12-0 in Horizon League Play
1/29/2025 8:28:00 PM | Women's Basketball
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - The Purdue Fort Wayne women's basketball team won its 14th-consecutive game by beating Youngstown State 79-56 on the road on Wednesday (Jan. 29), never trailing in the contest.
The Mastodons have not lost since Thanksgiving Day.
With their 14th win in a row, the Mastodons matched their longest win streak ever. It is also the fourth-longest active win streak in the country. In the last 14 wins, the Mastodons have had five wire-to-wire victories.
The Mastodons are now 12-0 in the Horizon League and own a 17-5 mark overall.
Wednesday was Purdue Fort Wayne's first win at YSU since 2010 and second all-time.
Four Mastodons reached double-figures in the scoring column: Sydney Freeman (22), Lauren Ross (16), Jordan Reid (16) and Renna Schwieterman (12). Reid's 16 is a career-high at the Division I level. Schwieterman finished with a team-high seven boards, while Freeman grabbed six of her own. Amellia Bromenschenkel had a line of eight points, five assists and four rebounds without a turnover.
The beginning of the game was a bit of a slog, with neither team scoring more than five points before the first media timeout. Despite this however, Purdue Fort Wayne managed to build up a 15-5 lead after 10 minutes. The 'Dons held YSU to 2-for-13 and 1-for-8 from 3-point range in the first quarter.
YSU showed life in the third quarter, cutting a 19-point lead down to 11, but Reid went on a 6-2 run by herself to stave off any kind of comeback.
Offense rolled for both teams in the fourth quarter, but the Mastodons came out ahead in the fourth as well. The 'Dons were 9-of-13 and 5-for-6 from 3-point land while YSU was 7-for-12 and 2-for-4.
After starting 0-for-4, the Mastodons finished 7-of-19 from 3-point range. They shot 46.2 percent (30-of-65) from the floor. They turned the ball over just eight times, their sixth single-digit turnover game in the last eight games.
Youngstown State fell to 9-13, 4-8 Horizon League despite 16 points from Jewel Watkins.
Purdue Fort Wayne will play at Robert Morris on Friday (Jan. 31) at 7 p.m.
