Lai Leads 'Cats to 7th Straight Win, 3-0 Mark in League
1/14/2017 7:18:00 PM | Women's Basketball
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – Junior forward Kat Fogarty (Westminster, Mass.) had 19 points with seven rebounds and junior guard Brittni Lai (Irvington, N.Y.) added 16 points with six assists to lead the University of New Hampshire women's basketball team to its seventh straight win, 70-62, at Binghamton University on Saturday afternoon.
The Wildcats are 3-0 in the America East Conference and at 13-3 are off to their best start to a season in 35 years. They last went 13-3 to start the 1981-82 season. The seven consecutive wins is UNH's best such mark since the 1991-92 season.
The Wildcats handed Binghamton its first league loss. The Bearcats are now 8-9 overall and 3-1 in the league.
UNH plays at Vermont on Monday at 1 p.mn.
Junior center Carlie Pogue (Cincinnati, Ohio), who saw limited time because she was in foul trouble, scored 17 points in her 18 minutes of action.
UP NEXT
The Wildcats continue their two-game road-trip with a game against Vermont in Burlington on Monday at 1 p.m. They return home to face Maine on Thursday, Jan. 19 at 7 p.m. in a game to be televised on ESPN3 and then play Hartford at home on Sunday, Jan. 22 at 1 p.m., again on ESPN3.
Individual and group tickets for UNH home games may be purchased by CLICKING HERE, by calling 603-862-4000 or at the Whittemore Center box office.
HIGHLIGHTS
A Carly Boland three-pointer tied the game at 58-58 with 5:09 left in the fourth period.
It was all Wildcats from there.
Lai made a nice drive down the middle, followed that with another and then fed Pogue for another layup. Pogue was fouled as well and added the free throw and UNH was up 65-58.
Alyssa James broke up the Wildcat string of points, but Pogue answered with two more hoops and UNH had made it an 11-2 run and was well on its way to another victory.
UNH, which leads the league in rebounding margin, did it again. The Wildcats had a 37-24 advantage on the boards.
HOW IT HAPPENED
The Wildcats, who have had a habit of coming from behind to win games, never trailed in this one though Binghamton did get the game tied in the fourth period.
UNH started fast and opened a 25-15 lead after one period. Binghamton cut into the lead in the second quarter and it was 40-36 UNH at the half. Fogarty had 11 of her points in the first half.
The Bearcats pulled within a point at 50-49 late in the third period, but Fogarty answered with a pair of baskets and UNH led 54-49 going into the fourth.
Binghamton tied the game at 58-58 with a three-pointer just before the midway point of the final period, but UNH quickly took control of the game again.
