Cabrini Last Time Out: Defeated Cedar Crest 69-23 (2/4/17)
Dodds and senior Renee Oliver led all scorers with 13 points.  Oliver grabbed 10 rebounds as well to pick up the double-double, while also collecting three steals and shooting an efficient 6-7 from the field. Washington chipped in 10 points and eight boards to help pace the Cavaliers. Junior Kate Skalski and freshman Meghan Matthews finished with nine and eight points, respectively. 

Dominant defense from the Cavaliers proved to be too much for the Falcons as the Blue and White jumped out to an early 18-2 lead after the opening quarter. The Cavaliers constant pressure never allowed Cedar Crest to settle in, resulting in the Falcons scoring just 23 points on the day while shooting 17% from the field. 

Cairn Last Time Out: Defeated Davis 64-58 (2/6/17)
Freshman Madelyn Brodish led the Highlanders with 20 points on 7-14 shooting while also pulling in 16 rebounds. Sophomore Payton Emerick also finished with a double-double, scoring 10 points and grabbing 16 boards.

Cairn shot 32.4 percent, their lowest shooting percentage in a victory this season. Additionally, the Highlanders went just 1-12 from beyond the arc, tying their season-opener for their worst shooting percentage (8.3%) in a contest this season. However, their strong effort on the glass proved to be the difference, as the Highlanders out rebounded Davis by a 55-33 mark - their largest rebounding margin of the season.
