Senior forward Sasha Cedeño’s career-high 30 points pushed FAU women’s basketball to lead for all but the first 18 seconds of the game in a 86-72 win against the Louisiana Tech Lady Techsters.
Cedeño scored 10 of the Owls’ (9-7, 3-2 C-USA) first 12 points Saturday, and finished the first half with 25 points, four made three-point shots and six rebounds while shooting 57 percent from three and 60 percent overall.
FAU led by as much as 21 in the second quarter with Cedeño scoring at will; knocking down contested jump shots, zipping past defenders to finish layups in heavy traffic, and creating contact to draw five free throw attempts.
