Second Half Sinks Wolves in Women’s Basketball

UTICA, N.Y. — The Keuka College Women's Basketball team lost on Friday night at Utica University, 62-53, in an Empire 8 Conference game.

Utica University 62 vs. Keuka College 53
The Wolves jumped out to a quick 7-2 lead over the Pioneers as Mary Cotter scored five of the first seven for the Green and Gold. Utica responded with seven unanswered to take the lead. The Wolves tied it up late on a layup by Brooke Burd as the game was tied 12-12 after one.

The lead would trade hands in the second quarter. The Wolves used six straight midway through the frame to grow a seven-point lead at 23-16. Keuka would look to keep that seven-point advantage at the half following a three from Emiley Anderson, but Utica hit a three in the final seconds to make the Keuka lead 26-22 at the break.

Utica scored the first six of the second half to regain the lead. Keuka tied it back up, but the Pioneers took the lead back and grew it. The hosts led by as many as nine in the frame while outscoring the Wolves 25-13. Utica took a 47-39 lead into the final quarter.

Brooke Burd made a bucket on the opening possession, and Mary Cotter followed with a three as the Wolves cut the margin to three a minute into the fourth. However, that would be as close as the Wolves would make it. Utica pushed their lead out to double digits and continued on to the 62-53 victory.

KC Notes:
  • The Wolves have dropped 10 straight to the Pioneers. Utica leads the all-time series 15-11
  • Mary Cotter scored in double figures for the fourth straight game, as did Lillian Mullen
  • With her 13 rebounds, Brooke Burd surpassed 400 rebounds in her career as a member of Keuka College Women's Basketball
  • Burd added a block on defense. She now has 26 this season, tying for ninth-most in program history
Up Next for Keuka College: The Wolves remain in Utica to complete the Empire 8 weekend. Keuka College will play at SUNY Poly on Saturday afternoon.
