RADNOR, PA - The Cabrini women's basketball team rattled off their sixth win in a row, this time over the visiting Gwynedd Mercy University Griffins by a 91-74 final. 

Senior Nomi Washington paced the Cavalier offense with a career high 31 points in 36 minutes. The guard added nine rebounds and four steals to match her play on the offensive end. 

Junior Meghan Matthews netted 14 points, seven boards and four blocks, while sophomore Lexi Edwards rounded out the Cavaliers in double figures with 11 points. Freshman Kirsten Searcy added a season high nine points off the bench. 

Following a near even first half in which the Cavaliers held a slim 36-35 lead at the break, the Blue and White found their offensive rhythm to start the third quarter. A triple from freshman Dani Tyrell jump started a 10-to-5 Cavalier run to open the third. A pair of layups from Edwards followed by an and-one from Washington highlighted the Cavalier spurt. 

Trailing 50-40 with 6:13 left in the quarter, the Griffins responded with an 8-3 run to trim the Cavalier lead to five points. A triple from Edwards, however, swung momentum back in favor of the Blue and White as they ripped off a huge 19-to-4 run to end the quarter. In total, six different Cavaliers scored during the run, led by Searcy's seven points, while the Cabrini defense forced four turnovers. 

Leading 72-52 to start the final stanza, the Cavs pushed their lead to a game high 23 points with 8:14 to play. The Griffins would not go down without a fight, however as they used a 19-to-4 run, fueled by their defense, to claw to within eight points with just over three minutes to play. The Gwynedd defense held the Blue and White without a field goal for nearly six minutes and forced eight consecutive missed shots during the run.

The eight point deficit is as close as the Griffins would come, however, as a layup from Matthews with 1:54 to play ended the drought and put the Cavs back up by 10. Cabrini would end the game on a 10-to-1 run to earn their sixth consecutive victory. 

Gwynedd's Susan Bossler led the visitors with 20 points on 7-of-12 from the field. 

Following today's action, the Blue and White improve to 12-8 overall and stay perfect at 7-0 in Atlantic East play. They will look to extend their winning streak on Wednesday, January 30th when they travel to Scranton, PA to take on the Marywood University Pacers. Game time is slated for 6pm.
