Press Herald features women's basketball team's opening victory in the new Alfond Forum

The Portland Press Herald on Nov. 21, 2012 featured the UNE women's basketball team, who opened their season on the new Alfond forum, defeating Bowdoin College 72-32.

"That is a positive way to open a building," said UNE Coach Anthony Ewing. "We really managed to bring a last-possession-type urgency to every possession, and that was good."

"This was a huge game, with the new building, and a big matchup against Bowdoin," said Meghan Gribbin '16, an elementary education major, who was the Maine Gatorade Player of the Year last season at Windham High. "We promised each other before the game that everyone was going to give it their all. And I think we showed that. The energy was just crazy."

The story also quoted Beth Suggs '13, an applied exercise science major, and ran photos of Liz LeBlanc '13, a psychology major, and Alanna Vose '16, an applied exercise science major. Read the story.
