MILLERSVILLE, Pa. – Millersville women's basketball saw it three-game winning streak end tonight in Pucillo Gymnasium, as the Raiders from Shippensburg took down the Marauders, 75-57.

Lauren Lister was able to provide a team-high 21 points, while Makiah Shaw and Mia Leonard each added 10 to the mix.

Millersville came out strong in the first, taking a six-point lead at the 2:17 mark in the quarter off a Ty Taylor layup; However, that would be the final Marauder points scored until midway through the second quarter. The 'Ville drought allowed Shippensburg to take a six-point advantage going into second-half play.

The theme of tonight's second half was Shippensburg not allowing the Marauders to form a comeback. 'Ville would find ways to pull within five twice, one time off a Lauren Lister three pointer, but the Raiders continued to end Marauder runs with big shots. Destiny Jefferson, who scored a game-high 22 points, came in during the fourth after sitting due to foul trouble and provided a couple dagger-like shots for the Raiders to put Millersville away.

The Marauders will now move on to Wednesday's matchup with the current No. 1 team in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) East, Kutztown.
