Warriors fall in championship at Rose City Classic

MADISON, N.J. – Senior Morgan Mader (Cresco, Pa./Pocono Mountain East) led the Lycoming College women's basketball team with a career-high 22 points, but Drew University used a strong third quarter to get past Lycoming, 74-63, in the championship game of the Rose City Classic on Saturday afternoon, Nov. 16, at Baldwin Gymnasium.
 
Mader was one of three Warriors (1-1 overall) to finish in double figures, as she hit 5-of-6 from 3-point range and 7-of-9 overall, also adding four rebounds and two assists. Junior Erica Lutz (Bernville, Pa./Hamburg) posted 10 points and 10 rebounds for her 10th career double-double and senior Kayla Kline (Mifflinburg, Pa./Mifflinburg Area) added 11 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks. Senior Akilah McFadden (Lewisburg, Pa./Lewisburg Area) was named to the all-tournament team after posting six points, seven assists, three steals and two blocks.
 
Drew (3-1 overall) shot 48 percent (28-of-59) from the field and held the Warriors to 37 percent (24-of-65). The Rangers shot 56 percent in the third quarter with nine field goals while Lycoming hit just five and shot 30 percent from the floor.
 
Drew led by as many as 10 in the second quarter, but the Warriors fought back, cutting it to a four-point game at the break after Mader got a 3-pointer to roll off the front rim and in to make it 38-34.
 
In the third quarter, though, the Rangers used a 16-2 run after Kline hit a jumper with 7:30 left in the period to take a 58-42 lead with 1:17 left. The Warriors weren't able to cut the lead to single digits in the last period.
 
Julia Ramos earned tournament MVP honors for the Rangers after posting 25 points and three steals in the win. Erin Frederick, an all-tournament team member, added 13 points and eight rebounds and Joey Meyers posted 13 points and seven rebounds.
 
The Warriors get back on the court on Wednesday, Nov. 20, when they host King's (Pa.) at 7 p.m. in the home opener at Lamade Gym.
