Women's Basketball Topped by William Paterson

Wayne, NJ – The Montclair State University women's basketball team fell to William Paterson 66-50 on Wednesday night.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Red Hawks (4-2, 0-2 NJAC) fell behind early, as the Pioneers recorded the game's first seven points over the opening three minutes. Buckets from OLIVIA VERO and ALEXIS STROLLO cut the deficit to one possession, but the home side countered with six-straight to open the advantage up to nine. Montclair got as close as four the rest of the frame, as they trailed 22-15 after one quarter.
  • Down nine early in the second, the Red Hawks rattled off seven-straight points, a run capped off by a layup from BRIANNA MONTAJES at the stanza's halfway mark. ALYSSA CRAIGWELL converted a layup a minute later to bring the visitors within one, but the Pioneers built their lead back to seven going into the break.
  • SHANNON HUGHES connected on a jumper 80 seconds into the second half to cut the score to 33-30, and after William Paterson added to their lead to go up by eight at the seven minute mark, the Red Hawks once again cut it to four on a fastbreak layup from Craigwell. The Pioneers led by as many as nine the remainder of the quarter and took a 47-40 lead into the final stanza.
  • William Paterson scored the first nine of the fourth to take their largest lead of the game at 16, and did not let the Red Hawks get closer than 12 the rest of the way to seal the victory on their home court.
INSIDE THE RESULTS
  • Craigwell led the way for Montclair with a career-high 20 points and also notched her second double-double of the campaign with 11 rebounds.
  • Hughes and AMANDA CASTRO each notched seven points off the bench for the Red Hawks.
