Last Meeting: Cabrini 74, Wesley 54 (2/6/2019, Dover, DE)
The Cavs offense came alive in their last matchup against the Wolverines as they had four players tally at least 15 points. Senior Meghan Matthews paced the Blue and White with a team high 20 points and 12 rebounds. Juniors Lexi Edwards, Kate Lannon and Ashley Tutzauer added 15 points each, with Lannon chipping in eight rebounds.

Monshea Newsome-Murr and Sydney Pedersen led the hosts with 11 points each. Newsome-Murr added a team best 11 rebounds to collect the doulbe double. 

Cabrini Last Time Out: Cabrini 81, Marywood 54 (1/22/2020, Scranton, PA)
A total of five different Cavaliers tallied double figures, led by junior Kate Lannon's 14 points. Senior Meghan Matthews filled the stat sheet with 13 points, eight assists and seven rebounds, while rookies Miranda Liebtag and Hannah Fenstermacher added 11 points each. Junior Ashley Tutzauer rounded out the Cavs in double figures with 10 points.

The Blue and White opened the game with a quick basket from Lannon on their opening possession and pushed their lead to 8-2 following a triple from junior Lexi Edwards. After layup and free throw from Marywood's Aryah Aungst to trim the hosts lead the three, the Cavs rattled off a 12-2 run to close the quarter. Tutzauer punctuated the spurt with a jumper with six seconds left on the clock. 

Cabrini would stay hot to start the second stanza as they opened the new frame with an 8-2 run to push their lead to 19 points at 28-9. A Tutzauer layup and Liebtag jumper sandwiched a Pacers' basket to extend the Cavs' lead to 23 points with 3:26 left in the half. Marywood would go on to end the half with a 7-2 run of their own to trim their deficit to 44-26. 

The Blue and White would continue to add to their lead throughout the second half, ultimately extending their cushion to a game high 31 points following a jumper from freshman Sydney Kesselman with 3:27 left in the game.
