Nov. 30, 2005

Stony Brook, N.Y. - Ambrosia Anderson tallied a game-high 22 points as BYU topped Stony Brook 77-54 on Wednesday night at the Indoor Sports Complex. The loss was the first of the season for the Seawolves, who fall to 2-1, while the Cougars remained perfect at 4-0.

BYU took advantage of Stony Brook's early shooting struggles as the Seawolves connected on just six of their first 34 shots in the opening half. Anderson was nearly unstoppable, netting 18 points in the stanza as the visitors jumped out to a 35-17 lead at the break.

SB picked up its play in the second, shooting a much improved 47 percent from the field, but the Cougars pulled away late in the half after stretching their lead to as many as 33 with 5:40 remaining to put the game well out of reach.

Mykeema Ford led the Seawolves with 13 points, while Dana Ferraro stretched her double-digit rebound streak to three games after pulling down a game-high 14 boards in the loss.

Anderson added 11 rebounds for BYU, while Danni Kubik collected 11 points and nine boards and Nancy Seljaas and Lauren Riley chipped in with 10 points a piece.

The Seawolves return to action on Saturday when they travel to Providence, R.I., to take on Arkansas State in the first game of the Brown Classic. Tip-off is set for 3:00 p.m.
