Philadelphia, Pa.- In Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) South Division competition, host-University of the Sciences scored a season-high 90 points as the second-place Devils eased past Georgian Court University, 90-74, Saturday afternoon.

Second-place USciences improves to 9-3 (4-1 CACC) while the Lions slip to 2-10 overall (0-6 CACC).
