Box Score
BETHLEHEM, Pa. (January 9, 2011) - After a tough loss in Scranton, the Rangers suffered a similar outcome as the Greyhounds handed them their second defeat in Conference play. Despite having two players in double digits, Drew (7-5, Landmark 1-2), plagued by turnovers and missed shots, never led in tonight's match-up.

Moravian (7-6. Landmark 2-1) started strong going up 9-0 in the first two minutes. At 13:50 in the first half, Victoria Ault (Middletown, N.J. / Mater Dei) snapped a 14-2 run by landing her shot. The jumper was the first of Ault's team high 11 points on the contest. Going into the half down by 22, the Rangers could never recover, falling to the Greyhounds 80-47.

The Greyhounds were able to silence Landmark Conference's second leading scorer, Danielle Barber (Cape May Court House, N.J. / Middle Township) to five points, her lowest of the season. With this the Rangers looked to younger players to make up the point deficit. Sophomore Jennifer Mateo (Union City, N.J. / Union City) was the second Ranger in double digits, sinking 10 and chipping in with five assists and steals equally. Off the bench, freshman Logan Cavanaugh ( Rutland, N.J. / Burr & Burton Academy) added a career high six points.

Drew returns to action next Friday when they host Conference opponent Goucher College. The women will follow the men with a tip-off set for 7:30 p.m.
