BOX SCORE
Radnor, PA - The Cabrini College women's basketball team continued their PAC winning streak today with a 64-47 win over Marywood University. With the win, the Cavaliers improve their record to 8-4, 3-0 PAC, while the Pacers fall to 9-4, 3-3 PAC.
Sophomore guard Alyssa Brady led in scoring for the Cavaliers with 15 points and four assists. Junior Kayleen Smith and sophomore Kate Walck followed Brady as Smith had 14 points of her own and one assist, while Walck had 10 points. Point guard Deana DiAmico led in assists for the Cavaliers with eight.
A set of three-pointers by both Brady and Walck in the first few minutes of the game helped to widen the Cavalier lead early. The Cavaliers did not allow the Pacers any offensive momentum in the first half, at one point forcing a three-minute scoring dry-spell on Marywood. Smith's layups also aided to the 32-24 halftime lead over the Pacers.
The Cavalier defense caused Marywood to commit 24 total turnovers in the contest, scoring off of 16 turnovers in the second half. The Cavalier bench contributed 13 points in the second half.
Marywood did manage to close the gap against Cabrini, at one point closing to within five points of the Cavalier's lead. Lizzy Green (Shenandoah, PA) and Stephanie Fusaro (Bala Cynwyd, PA) kept Marywood in the game, both leading in scoring for the Pacers with eight and seven points in the second, 16 and 10 overall, respectively.
Marywood returns to action Thursday January 24 with a non-conference matchup at Baptist Bible College. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:00 pm in Clarks Summit.
