February 26, 2000 Blue Hens Use Balance To Knock Off League-Leading Vermont
NEWARK, DE -- Balance was the difference for the University of Delaware women's basketball team Saturday as the Blue Hens put six scorers in double figures to post their seventh straight victory with an 80-64 America East win over league-leading Vermont Saturday at the Bob Carpenter Center. Junior guard Cindy Johnson led the way with 17 points, Danielle Leyfert and Christina Rible each chipped in with 12, and three other Blue Hens netted 10 points apiece in the decisive win. The Hens won their seventh straight overall and extended their school record with their seventh straight America East win to improve to 19-7, 12-5. Vermont, which got 23 points from freshman Morgan Hall (on 11 of 17 shooting) and 16 points from Dawn Cressman, had a 10-game win streak snapped to fall to 21-5, 14-3. The Hens have now defeated the Catamounts three straight times at the Bob Carpenter Center. The Hens, who got 10 points each from Christine Koren, Lindsay Davis (team-high eight rebounds) and Suzanne Street, have now won eight straight at home and finished the season 13-1 at the BCC this year. Delaware shot 48 percent from the field (30 of 62), converted on 18 of 19 free throws, and committed just 12 turnovers to avenge an earlier 94-76 loss at Vermont back in December. Vermont center Karalyn Church, the 1999 America East Player of the Year, was held to just 14 points and five rebounds. Libby Smith pulled a game-high 12 rebounds for the Catamounts. Vermont led most of the first half before the Hens scored the last eight points of the stanza to take a 41-36 lead into intermission. The Hens used an 11-4 run early in the second half to build the lead to 11 at 55-44 with 12:02 left. Vermont cut the lead to nine at 69-60 with 3:06 left, but the Hens responded with an 11-4 run, including nine straight free throws down the stretch, to ice the win.
