WALTHAM, MA — The Bentley University women's basketball team completed its preseason trip to Greece with two victories.
This is the first overseas trip in program history, and started with a 66-50 win over AAA Athens.
“We had great ball movement which led to a lot of nice open threes,” said head coach C White. “We had good inside-outside passes for open looks and the other open threes were off dribble penetration. We also did very well on the offensive boards.”
