Exhibition: Gee-Gees score historic win over NCAA

OTTAWA - Gee-Gees women's basketball recorded its first-ever home win over NCAA Division-I pre-season competition Thursday night at Ashbury College after fifth-year guard Allison Forbes scored 20 points and third-year post Hannah Sunley-Paisley added 18 in a 66-57 win over Division-I Fairleigh Dickinson.

"There is some potential with this group," said Gee-Gees second-year head coach Andy Sparks, the reigning OUA East coach of the year. "It was a solid, positive start."

Twelve players saw the floor for the Gee-Gees in uOttawa's first sanctioned game of the 2009-2010 season, and eight players scored.

The Gee-Gees host NCAA Division-I Vermont at Ashbury College Friday, August 28, 1:00 p.m.
