BUFFALO, N.Y. — The University at Buffalo women's basketball team got the win and the help they needed Wednesday night.
Now they need to finish strong.
Re'Shawna Stone led the Bulls with a game-high 20 points, and Zakiyah Winfield added a double-double with 14 points and 13 rebounds as UB beat Akron 64-50 on Wednesday night.
The Bulls needed help in their bid to qualify for the MAC tournament, and they got it with Eastern Michigan's loss to Northern Illinois.
UB (11-15, 6-11) now controls its own destiny. If it beats Western Michigan at home Saturday afternoon, it qualifies for the MAC tournament.
