December 9, 1999 BURLINGTON, VT -- Host Vermont used a 19-8 run to close the first half to overcome a 10-point deficit and cruised to a 94-76 women's basketball victory Thursday night, spoiling the America East opener for the University of Delaware at Patrick Gymnasium. The Blue Hens, who led by as much as 10 points early in the first half, dropped their third straight game to fall to 3-3, 0-1 America East and stayed winless in four conference openers under head coach Tina Martin. Vermont, which won its fourth straight game, improved to 7-1 as center Karalyn Church scored 32 points and pulled 10 rebounds. The Hens, who had their 1998-99 season ended at Patrick Gymnasium with a loss to Vermont in the America East quarterfinals, have now lost 12 straight games in the building. Christie Lauzon and Rachel Bryan each chipped in with 17 points for the Catamounts while Morgan Hall came off the bench to add 14 points and pull 11 rebounds. Hall nailed two three-pointers in the final minutes of the first half as the Catamounts took a 44-32 lead into intermission. Junior guard Cindy Johnson continued to put up big numbers for the Hens, scoring 20 points and dishing out four assists. Danielle Leyfert added 10 points, 11 rebounds, and six assists while guard Christine Koren had 10 points and six assists and added two three-pointers. "They made their runs and we made our runs tonight," said Martin, whose team will take on Hartford in West Hartford, CT Saturday night. "But the run Vermont made in the first half really broke our backs. We didn't have an answer for Church (the 1998 America East Player of the Year) and Hall played well." Delaware led 16-6 early in the game but Vermont rallied back and took the lead for good outscoring the Hens 19-8 over the final 6:32 of the first stanza. Delaware used a 12-4 run to open the second half to cut the lead to 51-44, but the Catamounts reeled off 10 of the next 12 points and the Hens could never get closer than 10 the rest of the way.
