THE GAME AT A GLANCE
5th-ranked IUP women's basketball (3-0, 0-0 PSAC) hits the road for the first time this season when they travel to face Cheyney (0-4) Tuesday afternoon. Tipoff at Cope Hall is scheduled for 2 p.m. The Crimson Hawks are perfect with three straight blowouts to start the year, including a 73-46 home win over Bloomsburg last Wednesday. No longer a Division II program, Cheyney is 0-4 on the year with losses to Virginia Union, Virginia State, Norfolk State and Maryland Eastern Shore. This is the Wolves' first home game.
