Team Effort Pushes Red Foxes Past Peacocks, 86-53

Vander Weide Sets New Career-High in Win Over Saint Peter’s

JERSEY CITY, New Jersey – Every Red Fox that saw minutes scored as the Marist women's basketball team took down the Saint Peter's Peacocks, 86-53, Tuesday evening at the Yanitelli Center in Jersey City, New Jersey.

The win is the Red Foxes second in a row and moves the team back to .500 at 10-10 overall and 6-2 in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. The loss puts Saint Peter's at 3-16 overall and winless in conference play at 0-8.

SUMMARY
  • The Red Foxes would hold an 18-11 lead after the first quarter and 41-25 lead at halftime.
  • A 10-0 run in the second quarter while holding Saint Peter's scoreless for over five minutes gave the Red Foxes a 35-18 lead and the cushion they would need throughout.
  • 13 points from Grace Vander Weide and four other Red Foxes with five or more points in the first half would turn into a career-high 17 points for Vander Weide and seven Red Foxes with five or more.
  • A 21-12 advantage in the third would push the Red Foxes lead to 25, 62-37.
  • Hannah Hand's free-throws with less than a minute remaining would put every Red Fox with minutes on the scoresheet.
