JOHNSTOWN, Pa. --- The Millersville women's basketball team (4-6, 0-4 PSAC) failed to connect from three in a 69-47 loss to Pitt-Johnstown (4-8, 1-4 PSAC) on Friday afternoon.
The Marauders continue to search for their first conference win after falling to Pitt-Johnstown. Millersville, a young team, has held its own against strong conference opponents this year, but was unable to get going in the first half after returning from the holiday break, scoring a season low 15 first-half points. Pitt-Johnstown outscored the Marauders 46-15 in the first half.
Millersville did not allow the sizable halftime differential to break them as they roared back in the third quarter out scoring the Mountain Cats 20-12, but the Mountain Cats closed out the fourth by outscoring the Marauders and beating the Marauders by 22, their biggest loss since Bowie State earlier this year on December 1.
INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
- Morgan Mahoney led the Marauders with 11 points and three rebounds, shooting 50% from the field.
- Kelly Cleaver grabbed her season-high in rebounds with 13.
- The Marauders had a forgettable night from beyond the arc, shooting 0 of 19, while the Mountain Cats shot 46.4% from three, going 13 of 28. 19 is the most 3-point shots attempted without making one in Coach Kira Mowen's career as the Marauders' head coach.
The Marauders will look to bounce back tomorrow against Indiana University of Pennsylvania in the fifth conference match up of the year at 1 p.m.
