WASHINGTON, D.C. – The defending North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) champions were being pushed to the limit by Gallaudet University on Saturday before the Keuka College women's basketball team pulled away from the Bison to secure the 55-39 win at the Field House.
Gallaudet (3-9, 1-5 NEAC South), never led in the game, kept the Storm lead to single digits for the majority of the game and even had it down to a point or two several times in the game. Keuka pulled away midway through the second half as the Storm outscored the Bison 31-23.
Sophomore guard Britny Latham (Cleveland, Tenn.) made 3-of-5 shots from the field in the first half as she led all-scorers with 10 points through the first 20 minutes of play as GU only trailed 24-16 at the intermission. Latham finished with a game-high 23 points as she made three three-pointers and 6-of-13 shots from the field for the Bison.
