Women’s Basketball Clinches Home Quarterfinal With Victory at Chestnut Hill



Junior Lexi Bruno (Millville, NJ) recorded the first triple-double of her career, became the school's three-point leader and Amanda McGrogan (Mount Laurel, NJ) took over in the fourth quarter for Goldey-Beacom, which clinched a home game for the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference quarterfinals with an 89-72 triumph at Chestnut Hill in Philadelphia, PA.
 
Bruno broke the three-point record by connecting from the left wing with 1:47 to go in the first half, marking her second school record after eclipsing the assists mark last Wednesday at University of the Sciences.  She has 201 three-pointers and bested the mark held by Jacinda Jones (2007-08, 2009-13), who hit 198 from beyond the arc.
 
Bruno closed the half by scoring six points during an 8-0 run that put the Lightning ahead, 41-36.  She scored 12 points in the half, McGrogan netted 11 and junior Britani Bryson (Hampton, VA) added 10 for GBC, which shot 45 percent (14-of-31) that included 5-of-6 from 3-point range.
 
McGrogan then took over in the fourth, scoring nine of her 11 points in the stanza during a 14-2 run that gave the visitors a 74-56 lead with 5:20 remaining.  She started the burst with two 3-pointers and Bruno also netted five points.
 
Bruno ended with 19 points, 14 assists that set a career high and 11 rebounds that tied her personal best in yet another milestone to her standout career.  Bryson scored a game-high 28 points on 14-of-17 shooting and McGrogan netted a career-best 27 points for the Lightning, who shot 57 percent (16-of-28) from the field in the second half and 51 percent (30-of-59) overall.
 
Shannon Glenn and Vicky Tumasz netted 14 points apiece for the Griffins (16-10, 11-8 CACC).
 
Goldey-Beacom (17-11, 13-6) ends the regular season second in the CACC South Division and is headed to the conference tournament for the seventh time in eight seasons.  It will be home Saturday against Dominican-NY (11-17, 11-8), which closed third in the North Division.  Game time at the Jones Center in Wilmington, DE is 2:00 pm.
