Magarity Moves to No. 2 Spot in UNH Career Wins
VESTAL, N.Y. – Junior Caroline Soucy (Beverly, Mass.) had her second double-double of the season and freshman guard Kari Brekke (Appleton, Wis.) led all players with 14 points to pace the University of New Hampshire women's basketball team to a 54-53 win over Binghamton on Saturday afternoon.
The win was No. 136 for coach Maureen Magarity at UNH, moving her into the second spot on the program's career list for victories.
The Wildcats earned a split of the season series with the Bearcats and won consecutive America East games for the first time this season. They were coming off a 54-46 win over UMass Lowell on Wednesday night.
They improved to 6-18 overall and 3-8 in the league.
Binghamton fell to 9-15 and 4-7.
UNH returns home to play Vermont on Wednesday night at 7 in Lundholm Gymnasium.
