Black, Santucci lead Toledo to 69-60 win over Kent State

The University of Toledo women's basketball team got a lift from its veterans as it held serve for a 69-60 home win over Kent State on Saturday afternoon at Savage Arena.

Junior Nakiah Black led the way for Toledo (10-9, 5-3 MAC) with 22 points, senior Mariella Santucci scored 20, and graduate transfer Arianne Whitaker had 10 points and 12 rebounds.

It was the first time Toledo had two 20-point scorers in the same game since Jay-Ann Bravo-Harriott and Kaayla McIntyre did so in February, 2018.

“I loved our effort and our focus today,” Toledo coach Tricia Cullop said.
