Bison Too Much For Scots, Hand Gordon 57-38 Loss

Box Score
Looking to halt a three-game skid against the visiting Bison of Nichols College today in a Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) duel, the Scots were outmatched by their guests, 57-38, in Gordon's Bennett Athletic Center to move to 1-8 in the CCC.

After the Bison netted the opening seven points of the game, the Scots finally broke onto the boards at 13:40 when Leanna Tallamy (Fr./Wantage, N.J.) hit a jumper to make a 7-2 game. Tallamy then went on to bury a free throw and a jumper to close the gap to just two points at 11:52. From there, however, the Bison went on a surge behind standout play from Kasey Pelletier (So./Dunstable, Mass.), who netted eight points and grabbed three steals in the stanza, and Chelsea Shaughessy (Sr./Halifax, Mass.), who grabbed an impressive 10 boards to leave the Scots trailing 26-12 at the break.

Nichols carried that momentum into the second, going on a 10-0 run in the first three and half minutes to further the gap to 36-12. Though Tallamy would net the Scots' next eight points to threaten a comeback, Nichols held fast to the lead to cruise to the eventual 19-point victory.

Kristina Lindgren (Jr./Sturbridge, Mass.) led the way for Nichols with 18 points, five rebounds, and five assists, while Shaughnessy ended the outing with seven points, 13 rebounds, and four steals. Tallamy rounded out the effort with a 23-point, 11-rebound double-double, while Brooke Kratche (Fr./Chagrin Falls, Ohio) recorded 10 points and five rebounds.

The Scots travel to Western New England on Wednesday, January 25 for a 5:30p.m. start, while Nichols, now 4-12 overall, 3-6 in the CCC, are at Curry on the same day for a 6:00p.m. tip-off.
