Women’s Basketball Drops Another ACC Match

Boston College women’s basketball lost another game yesterday, falling to 1-7 in the ACC. The Eagles are on a 7 game losing streak and haven’t won since January 2nd.

Last night, BC fell to Wake Forest by a score of 71-55. As usual, the Eagles played a more even game in the first half before allowing Wake to run away with things in the second half. BC was out-rebounded 35 to 41 and allowed 18 turnovers. BC also struggled from behind the three point line last night, going 0-for-12.

Mariella Fasoula continues to be impressive on offensive despite BC’s struggled. She had her 5th career double-double last night and led all players in the game with 26 points. She also led all players with 10 rebounds, while Taylor Ortlepp led all players in the game with 5 assists. The fact that the Eagles had the leaders in all 3 major categories but still managed to loses highlights the troubling aspects of this time. Despite having some talents offensive and good rebounders, BC is plagued by sloppy passing, inaccurate shooting, and weak defense. The Eagles are also inconsistent from game to game and period to period, both as a team and as individual players.

BC returns to action on Sunday against Miami.
