Ngoie, Robinson, Okoro and the #A10WBB Weekend Slate

It was a Saturday full of milestone in #A10WBB; a three-point record for Sandra Ngoie, a new member of the 1K club for Duquesne, a scoring output not seen in just under 10 years in Saint Louis, and a free throw master in Richmond all made up an exciting Saturday in #A10WBB. As for Sunday, a milestone on #PinkDay, an “I guess I got my swagger back win” for GW, and a big win for Rhody made up an exciting afternoon.
