SYRACUSE, N.Y.
– The Lock Haven University women’s basketball team
(0-1) had the game tied at 49 with 1:11 left, but failed
to score again, eventually falling to Le Moyne College
(1-0) 53-49, tonight. Sophomore guard Allison Hall
(Hollidaysburg, Pa./Hollidaysburg) led all scorers
with 15 points to go with six rebounds.
Down 49-41 with 3:46 to
go, the Lady Eagles went on an 8-0 run, using four
consecutive points by Ginger Williams
(Pasadena, Md./Chesapeake) on a offensive rebound
putback and two free throws, capped by a Hall steal and
layup to knot the game at 49.
As hot as they were was
how cold they became, giving up a key offensive rebound
with 44 seconds left and a blocked LHU three-point
attempt resulting in a loss of possession. Those
mistakes combined with Le Moyne making all four free
throws in the last minute sealed the game for LHU.
The Lady Eagles enjoyed
three leads throughout the game, all in the first half
and all by one point, with the latest occurring at the
halftime buzzer after a steal and layup by freshman
Kelli Pittner (Linesville, Pa./Linesville)
gave them a 25-24 advantage.
Joining Hall in double
figures was the Haven’s lone senior Melissa Picarsic
(Acme, Pa./Mt. Pleasant) with 10 points and five
boards.
Hall, Williams, Pittner,
Picarsic and the rest of the Lady Eagles are back in
action Tuesday, Nov. 23 in their first home game of the
2004-05 season, against Virginia Union University at 5
p.m. |
