MARIETTA, Ohio -- Senior forward Amanda Rose (Green/Green) scored 16 points to become the 13th player in school history to score over 1,000 career points and led No. 7 ranked Mount Union to a 74-56 win at Marietta.

The Purple Raiders move to 21-1 overall, extend their school-record win streak to 16 games and maintained first place in the Ohio Athletic Conference at 14-1.
