Cougars Cruise to 113-52 Win Over Pfeiffer in Home Opener

CHARLESTON, S.C. -- The College of Charleston women's basketball team (2-0, 0-0) opened its home schedule in style as it coasted to a 113-52 victory over Pfeiffer (1-1, 0-0) on Friday at TD Arena. The scoring output marked the most points scored by the Cougars in the program's division-one history.

Head Coach Robin Harmony: "It's great to be back in TD Arena and playing at home. Our fans are getting to see the talent that we have brought in. Offensively, we did a good job today. We showed how we can really push the ball of offense. I thought our defensive intensity could have been better."

Coach Harmony on Grace Abercrombie's 18 point day: "Grace can just shoot the ball. The more shots we get her, the more her confidence will continue to build. She's just a shooter, she's unstoppable when she gets rolling."
