Game Recap: Women's Basketball |

Slow start too much to overcome

The Lincoln University women's basketball team never found an offensive rhythm Saturday and fell to regionally-ranked Shepherd, 65-47, in non-conference action at Manuel Rivero Gymnasium.


 
The Lions tallied just four points in the first quarter and were fighting uphill for the entire night. While the LU offense was struggling, Shepherd was just the opposite.
 
The Rams finished the first half, shooting 62.5 percent (15-of-24) from the floor, including 5-of-6 from beyond the arc. With that, Lincoln trailed by 17 at the half.  
 
Senior Bryanna Brown (New York, N.Y./Bishop Loughlin) keyed a Lincoln run with back-to-back three-pointers and then a three-point lead that pulled the Lions to within eight. But a questionable technical foul call stymied all the LU momentum and Shepherd recorded a four-point possession to reclaim its double-figure advantage.
 
Lincoln briefly cut the deficit to nine points, but a 14-5 Shepherd run put the game away.
 
Brown tallied a team-high 16 points with six rebounds, while senior Kryshell Gordy (Chester, Pa./Ursuline Academy (Del.)) registered her first double-double of the season with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
 
Lincoln (2-2) has a quick turnaround as the Lions host Washington Adventist 6 p.m. Saturday.
