Box Score KEUKA PARK, NY – A big run late in the second half helped the Keuka College Storm get past the SUNYIT women's basketball team 62-54 Wednesday and halt the Lady Wildcats' two-game win streak. SUNYIT is now 8-3 in the NEAC and 9-4 overall, while Keuka improved to 12-1 in the conference and 14-1 overall.
Keuka used a 25-10 run in the final 8:34 of action to erase a seven-point deficit and pick up the eight-point victory. SUNYIT started the game hot, opening the contest with a 17-point lead before going into halftime up 33-29. The Wildcats would struggle in the second half, though, hitting just nine of their 39 field goal attempts and committing 11 turnovers to squander their lead and suffer defeat.
Sophomore Lyndsey Brognano (Rome, NY/Rome Free Academy) scored a game-high 17 points, while senior Tamara Williams (Rome, NY/Rome Free Academy) posted her third double-double of the season with 12 points and a game-high 13 rebounds.
Brittany Schrock and Nikki Zahn each scored 14 points for Keuka, while Heather Fish and Mariah Mouzon both grabbed 11 rebounds.
The Wildcats will look to rebound this weekend when they hit the road for a pair of NEAC contests. They will first take on Penn State Harrisburg on Saturday at noon before squaring off against nationally ranked Gallaudet on Sunday at 1:00 pm.
