STRONG SECOND HALF PROPELS GOLDEN KNIGHTS PAST NEW HAVEN

Saint Rose limits Chargers to 16, second half points

WEST HAVEN, CT-The College of Saint Rose held host New Haven to 16 second half points to chalk up a 54-42 Northeast-10 Conference victory today.
 
The Golden Knights (12-10/7-9 NE10) trailed by one, 26-25, at the break, but manufactured an 11-2 run midway through  the third period that transformed a three point, 32-29, deficit into a six point, 40-34, cushion with 3:16 remaining in the stanza. They then limited the Chargers (5-16/4-12 NE10) to a pair of fourth period field goals to snap a four-game skid.
 
"I am really happy we were able to bounce back this afternoon. We had a great team defensive effort and we did a superlative job on the glass in the second half. Our team showed that it is comprised of fighters. I'm proud of them," said head coach Karen Haag.
 
Sophomore guard Ashley Vanderwall ignited the third period jaunt by knocking down a 3-pointer and then put Saint Rose ahead to stay with a pair of free throws. Senior guard Taylor Nazon capped the run by canning a trey of her own. The Golden Knights eventually expanded their advantage to double-digits with 5:29 to go in the ballgame.
 
Nazon scored 17 points, pulled down five rebounds, and handed out four assists to pace the Saint Rose charge. Senior forward Staci Barrett contributed 12 points and five boards, while Vanderwall added nine points. Furthermore, sophomore forward Karissa Birthwright hauled in a career-high 15 caroms, 13 from the defensive glass, and also registered six points and three assists.
 
For New Haven, freshman forward Micah Wormack recorded a "double-double" with 11 points and 14 rebounds.
 
Looking ahead, the Golden Knights return home Wednesday to host NE10 rival Adelphi. The first half of the conference doubleheader is set to get underway at 5:30 pm. Meanwhile, New Haven is home again Tuesday for a 7:00 pm non-league date with Saint Thomas Aquinas.
Notes: Saint Rose plays three of its final four games at home where the Golden Knights are 5-3…Four players are averaging at least 9.0 points with Nazon leading the way at 13.0 ppg…Saint Rose is currently in fourth place in the NE10 Southwest Division where a mere four games in the loss column separates second from fifth place, the final playoff spot.
