LYCOMING WOMEN’S BASKETBALL DEFEATS FREDONIA

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – The Lycoming College women’s basketball team took a break from conference competition, Saturday evening, to host non-conference foe Fredonia State. The Warriors limited the Lady Blue Devils to just 17 points in the second half as they came back from a nine-point, first-half deficit to win 60-49. The victory improves Lycoming’s record to 4-2 while Fredonia falls to 2-6.

The Lady Blue Devils had the early advantage building a 25-16 lead 12 minutes into the contest. The Warriors, however, went on an 8-0 run over a two-minute span to close within one. They then gained their first lead of the game with 2:30 to play in the half at 30-29. A pair of free throws in the closing seconds of the first period extended Lycoming’s lead to 34-32 at the break.

The second half was all Warriors as the home team pulled away for the double-digit victory.

Lycoming had four players score in double figures in the game led by Emily DiMarco (Sr./Voorhees, N.J.; Eastern) with 14. Sabrina Catrambone (So./Birchrunville, Pa.; Springfield) added 13 points, Stacy Lindeman (So./Whitehall, Pa.; Whitehall) scored 12 points, and Amy Kile (So./Muncy, Pa.; Muncy) chipped in 10 markers. Katy Kresge (Sr./Lehighton, Pa.; Marian Catholic) controlled the boards for the Warriors with a game-high 13 rebounds, including eight on the offensive end of the floor.
