Unbeaten Misericordia Downs Women's Basketball, 87-60

Scranton, Pa. - Aryah Aungst scored a game-high 18 points for Marywood University but unbeaten Misericordia University placed five players in double figures as the Cougars (8-0) left Scranton with a 87-60 win over the Pacers (2-6) Saturday afternoon in non-conference women's basketball action.

Aungst's game-high came on 6 of 16 shooting from the floor. She also grabbed a team-high seven boards.  Tessa Zaamolyi led the Cougars with a double-double after recording 13 points and 12 rebounds.  She tied for the team-high in points with Gianna Delfino.  

Marywood's Kilie Wyers was the only other Pacer in double-digits with 10.  Madison Borum (12), Alyssa Bondi (11) and Erica Haefele (10) also reached double digits for the visitors.

Misericorida lit up the first quarter and never looked back.  They went 12-of-23 (52%) from the floor and hit four of seven three's (57%) as they built up a 28-16 lead after the first 10 minutes of action.  The Cougars led by as many as 15 with 1:16 to go in the opening half before a missed shot at the buzzer kept Marywood from getting back to within 10.

Another 20-point quarter in the second for the Cougars extended their lead to 20 (48-28) at the break.  The Pacers were able to tighten things up defensively in the second half , but the Cougars' defenses also limited Marywood's offensive efficiency, keeping the visitors in front by a comfortable margin.

Marywood is back in action next Saturday when they host Susquehanna University at 1:00 pm in the Insalaco Arena.
