Poughkeepsie, N.Y. - The Montclair State University women's basketball team fell to Vassar College 72-59 on Saturday night.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Red Hawks (1-1) battled the Brewers in a back-and-forth first quarter that featured eight lead changes. MEGAN DUFFY led the way for Montclair with seven points in the opening stanza.
  • Vassar reclaimed the lead at 8:43 in the second quarter and opened the margin to as much as eight during the frame. Duffy continued her offensive surge with nine more points, but the Red Hawks entered the break down eight.
  • Montclair came out of halftime strong, closing the margin to one with 7:41 on the clock behind two three-pointers from ISABELLA ORLANDO and a Duffy three.
  • The visitors regained the advantage just under the halfway point of the third on a three-pointer from SHANNON HUGHES. The Brewers closed the quarter on an 8-3 run to make the score 54-29 after three.
  • Vassar expanded their lead to double digits early in the fourth quarter and would not relinquish it the rest of the way.
INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
  • Duffy led Montclair with 21 points, marking the fourth time in her Red Hawks career that she has eclipsed 20 points.
  • Orlando finished the game with 14 points, two off her career-high of 16 that she set in the team's season opener against Lehman on Wednesday night.
  • The Red Hawks held a slight 43-42 edge on the boards and had 19 second-chance points in the contest.
FROM THE COURT
"I thought tonight we had some flashes of the team that we want to become. When we executed our offense, rebounded, and worked together, we were successful as a team. Moving forward, we have to focus on reducing our turnovers and playing a full 40 minutes as a team." - Associate Head Coach Katie Sire.

UP NEXT
The Red Hawks will host King's College in their 2023-24 home opener on Wednesday, November 15. Game time from the Panzer Athletic Center is slated for 6:00 pm.
