Box Score

Dover, Del. - Four players in double digits propelled Wesley College to a 72-66 victory over St. Mary's College of Maryland on Saturday afternoon.  Juniors Angie Owens (Seaford, Del./Seaford) and Cory Boyd (Point Pleasant, N.J./Point Pleasant) combined for 34 points to pace the Wolverines in their second Capital Athletic Conference win of the season.

Joining Owens and Boyd in double figures were freshman guard Jazmine Miller (Dover, Del./Dover) with 11 and junior Allison Beddia (New Castle, Del./Delcastle) with 10.  Owens registered a double-double with a game-high 11 rebounds while adding three blocks.

The Seahawks (2-10, 1-3 CAC) put forth a late rally in the second half, overcoming an 11-point deficit to regain the lead, 54-53 with 7:08 remaining in regulation.  The lead was short-lived as Wesley used a 13-0 run to reclaim the lead and stretch it to 67-54 at 1:43.

Freshman guard Pui Sham (Springfield, Va./W. Springfield) led the Seahawks with a game-high 21 points on 7-of-15 shooting from downtown while adding a season-best three assists.  Guards Stephanie Saint-Aubin (Bowie, Md./Elizabeth Seton) and Megan Seeman (Frederick, Md./Linganore) each tallied 13 points while Saint-Aubin finished with a double-double as she hauled in 10 boards.  Senior center Alex Wenger (Baltimore, Md./Perry Hall) pulled down a game-best 11 caroms.

With Wenger and Saint-Aubin combining for 21 rebounds, St. Mary's boasted a 46-34 rebounding advantage.

Despite turnovers being nearly equal for the game, Wesley did a much better job on capitalizing on those miscues as the Wolverines tallied 30 points off 22 Seahawk turnovers while St. Mary's managed 15 points off 20 turnovers for the home team.

Shooting 48.0% from the floor, including 4-of-8 from downtown, allowed Wesley (7-6, 2-3 CAC) to edge the Seahawks, 32-29, at halftime.  The Wolverines rushed off to an 11-2 start as Owens capped the run with a three-pointer at 15:59.  Nine points was Wesley's biggest lead of the first half before the visitors used an 11-2 run to knot the contest at 29-29 with 48 seconds left in the half as Saint-Aubin finished the jumper.  A three-pointer by senior guard Michele Mules (York, Pa./Susquehannock) gave the Wolverines the three-point edge at intermission.

The Seahawks will return to action next Wednesday, January 13 as St. Mary's hosts the University of Mary Washington at 6:00 pm.
