The Lady Colonials took down the Blackbirds of LIU Brooklyn
Monday night by a score of 79-43.
Not much to say about this game other than the ladies did what
they needed to do to make sure they didn’t give up any ground in the standings.
The entire team played together and really shared the ball throughout the game.
No player scored more than 20 points, and six players had at least eight
points. Rebeca Navarro had a better game than I expected (10 points, three assists,
one steal, one block), so the game ball goes to her.
With only four games left and a solid two game lead on second
place Mount St. Mary’s, the Colonials can feel very comfortable in first place.
The only team in the top
half of the conference to lose Monday night was Bryant, who lost to Mount St.
Mary’s.
The final four games of the women’s team schedule have RMU
matching up against the four toughest teams in the conference. RMU has won a
game against all four of those teams, so even if they lose to a team, it will
be a season split. The only foreseeable way for RMU to give up first place by
season end is to lose two of their next three games and lose to Mount St.
Mary’s in the final game of the season.
It’s looking very good for RMU as the season is coming to a
close. The next women’s game is at Bryant on Saturday at 1:00 pm. The women’s
team only plays one more home game this season: the final game of the season
against Mount St. Mary’s. Hopefully the game will be meaningless as the regular
season conference championship should be clinched by that point.
