Fogarty Leads 'Cats Past Dartmouth to 10-3 Start
12/31/2016 4:13:00 PM | Women's Basketball
DURHAM, N.H. – Junior forward Kat Fogarty (Westminster, Mass.) poured in a career-high 23 points to lead the University of New Hampshire women's basketball team to its fourth straight win, 64-47, over Dartmouth College on Saturday afternoon in Lundholm Gymnasium.
The Wildcats won for the ninth time in their last 10 games and closed out the nonconference portion of their schedule with a 10-3 record and their best start to a season since 1998-99.
They open America East play with an Education Day home game against Stony Brook on Wednesday at 11 a.m.
Fogarty led four Wildcats in double figures in scoring. Junior guard Brittni Lai (Irvington, N.Y.) had 12 points and junior center Carlie Pogue (Cincinnati, Ohio) and sophomore forward Ashley Storey (Cumberland, Maine) each scored 10.
Dartmouth, which beat UNH's America East rival Albany 69-61 in overtime on Thursday, fell to 5-8.
