congrats coach porter and team ... great win!!! Highlanders Handle Hokies, 67-60 November 10, 2006
BLACKSBURG, Va.--Senior Sarah Stephens scored 22 points and junior Corrie Fertitta tallied a double-double to lead Radford to a 67-60 season-opening win over Virginia Tech Friday night at Cassell Coliseum. The victory was the first by the Highlanders over the Hokies since Dec. 11, 1997 in Cassell, snapping a seven-game slide.
With 1:39 to go, Stephens broke a 58-58 tie, hitting a layup and her free throw to put Radford up for good. Fertitta set up the game-winning bucket with a drive a nice dish to Stephens. The Hokies cut the lead to one with 48 seconds to go, but Radford hit six consecutive free throws, the final four by Fertitta, to close out Virginia Tech.
Fertitta had 12 points and 10 rebounds and Stephens was 8-for-12 from the field and 6-6 at the line. www.ruhighlanders.com/news/news_detail.php?news_id=1117
