Women’s Basketball: Owls blow fourth-quarter lead, lose to Old Dominion 77-72

FAU’s women’s basketball (2-6, 0-4 C-USA) continue being winless in C-USA play after losing to the Old Dominion Monarchs (5-3, 2-2 C-USA) 77-72.

Women’s basketball head coach Jim Jabir said they played well for most of the game, but there is a lot of work to be done to play that way for the whole game.

“Injuries and all, there’s no excuse,” Jabir said. “We had an opportunity to win the game and we didn’t do it.”

Sophomore guard Alexa Zaph got off to a good start for the Owls in the first quarter. She scored her first seven points there, as the Owls performed better than they did to start in Friday’s 71-56 loss to Old Dominion.
