Women's Basketball Suffers a Tough Loss to Mount Saint Mary on Thursday Night

NEWBURGH, NY – The SUNY Old Westbury women's basketball suffered a tough loss to Mount Saint Mary's on Thursday night by a final score of 82-27. 
 
The Panthers struggled on both ends of the court in this one and ultimately could not do anything to overcome the powerful performance of the Knights of Mount Saint Mary's College. 
 
The game got off to a tough start for OW as they found themselves down by 13 points before scoring their first points with just over four minutes to go in the first quarter. The Panthers were only able to put up six points in the opening quarter as Allysha Thomas, Tyela Davidson, and Phalan Smith connected on jumpers. The Knights compiled 17 points and led the Panthers going into the second quarter, 17-6. 
 
As the second quarter got going, the Panthers continued to struggle offensively. In the quarter, the Panthers' seven points came from a three-point shot and jumper from Davidson, and a layup from Kasiobi Okenwa. The Knights continued to pile on the points, adding another 20 to their total giving them a 37-17 lead at halftime. 
 
The second half began with three straight scoring opportunities for the Knights. The Panthers' first point of the second half came off a free-throw from Thomas. Okenwa and Thomas added baskets for the Panthers but again OW was only able to tack on six points. The Knights entered the final quarter ahead with a score of 57-19. 
 
The final quarter of play was the highest-scoring period for the Panthers. Smith, Okenwa, and Davidson hit shots, but the efforts of the Panthers fell short. The Knights defeated the Panthers by a comfortable margin and a final score of 82-27. 
 
Throughout the night, the Panthers struggled to get their shots through the net. The team shot 19 percent from the floor in the game and hit just one of 12 shots from three. The Panthers also continued to struggle from the free-throw line, amassing a percentage of 28.6 from the line. 
 
Despite the offensive struggles, the Panthers's leading scorer was Tyela Davidson. She scored 10 points and had five rebounds and a block. Allysha Thomas had another strong game on the glass, finishing with 13 rebounds as well as six points. Kasiobi Okenwa finished the night with six points and nine rebounds. 
 
The Knights' leading scorer was Charlotte Twohig. She finished the game with 25 points, four rebounds, three assists, and four steals. Ciarra Quinn also had a nice game for the Knights as she finished with 18 points, seven rebounds, and two blocks. Another key finisher for the Knights was Brianna Guglielmo. She recorded 12 points, nine rebounds, three assists, and four steals throughout the game.
