The victory set new season highs in scoring as PC went over the 70 point barrier for the first time this season.  The margin of victory, 45 points, was PC's largest since November 20, 2000 when PC downed Erskine, 80-28.

The Blue Hose (5-17, 3-6 BSC) set a season high for points in a half with 39 points in the game's opening period to take a 39-10 lead into the locker room.  On the other side of the coin, Allen's (1-20) ten first half points was the fewest PC had allowed in any half this season.

Freshman Mariah Pietrowski scored 14 in the opening period and finished the night on 18 points.  She also added seven rebounds in the victory, just missing her second career double-double.

Senior Lea Smith backed up her 23-point performance from the corresponding game a year ago with 11 points, her highest total this season.  Freshman Shonda Burnside added 10 points to go along with six rebounds and a career high four steals.

Freshman Dria David had six points while dishing out a career high seven assists.  Fellow freshman Chelsea Parker tallied seven points.  Sophomore Brittany Brown had six points. 

PC moved the ball well in the first half, recording 15 assists on just 18 field goals in the opening 20 stanza.  Overall, PC had 22 assists and 34 field goals overall.

The Blue Hose's three-game winning streak is the longest since the end of the 2005-06 season when PC rolled to wins over Lenoir-Rhyne, Carson-Newman and Tusculum.    

The Blue Hose will return to action on Saturday afternoon at UNC Asheville starting at 2 p.m.  The game will be broadcast live on WMYA-TV 40.  In Clinton, WMYA is channel five on Charter Communications.
