No. 8 Women's Basketball Too Much For Lewis & Clark

PORTLAND, Ore. - Kaylie McCracken put up 14 points and 10 rebounds, Korin Baker added 14 more points and the No. 8 Whitman College women's basketball team used a big second quarter to run away with a 69-46 win at Lewis & Clark in Northwest Conference play on Saturday night.

Kaelan Shamseldin added 10 points on 3-6 shooting in three pointers and Sydney Abbott did a little bit of everything in adding seven points, six assists, six rebounds and four steals. The win for the Blues (16-1, 8-0 NWC) keeps them undefeated and alone at the top of the conference table.

The Blues had one of the best shooting nights of the season, hitting 47% from the floor which included a 55% effort in their huge second quarter.

Eva Johnson led the Pios with 12 points.

Whitman opened the game with a 7-0 run highlighted by back-to-back buckets from Baker. L&C responded with seven straight points of its own to tie the game with 5:21 to play. Shamseldin then hit a three pointer to break the tie and help the Blues to a five point lead after one quarter.

The Blues unloaded on the Pios in the second quarter, putting 24 points on the board and taking a 40-19 lead into halftime. Whitman held Lewis & Clark to only two points over a near six-minute span while taking a 31-13 lead over the stretch. A handful of Blues players got in on the action including Elena McHargue who drilled a three pointer to push the lead to 38-15 with 1:34 to play.

The Pios gained a bit of ground in the third quarter but Whitman pulled away in the final 10 minutes. Carly Martin's three pointer and Caira Young's jumper put the Blues up by 26 points with 4:24 and the Blues cruised to the win.

The Blues next host Whitworth this Tuesday, Jan. 25. Tipoff at the Sherwood Center is set for 6:00 p.m.
