Caldwell Coasts to 92-56 Victory Over Georgian Court in CACC Women's Hoops Action

Lakewood, N.J. - The Georgian Court University women's basketball squad proved to be unable to stanch a multi-tooled Caldwell University offense Saturday afternoon as the visiting Cougars stormed into the GCU Wellness Center and sent home the limping Lions, 92-56, in Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) action.

The Lions would own a portion of the lead all the way to the 33-second mark of the initial frame when a Sharell Sanders (Sr.-Dorchester, Mass.) lay-up snapped a 14-14 tie and put the Cougars ahead fo what would turn out to be the remainder of the affair.

The Cougars connected on 20-of-21 attempts from the charity stripe (95.2%) while pouring in 42 points as a direct result of 32 Georgian Court turnovers.
