Divinity Singleton scores six points, grabs four rebounds in loss.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Lewis & Clark College women's basketball used an 8-0 run to close out the third quarter and outscored the Northwest Conference-leading team 15-10 in the frame, but No. 6 Whitman College held on for a 69-40 win Saturday at Pamplin Sports Center.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Sophomore Lauryn Frederickson led the Pioneers with 12 points and six rebounds. All eight Pios contributed with points, rebounds or both. Fellow sophomore Divinity Singleton added six points and four rebounds. Junior Madelyn Sanchez, sophomore Madilyn Palosi and first-year Kaitlen Carns joined Singleton with four boards apiece.

Palosi and sophomore DJ Kendrick each finished with five points, while junior Tatiana Rebanal, sophomore Isabella Bernard and Carns rounded out the scoring with four points.

Whitman jumped out to an early lead, taking a 13-4 advantage after the first quarter and extending it to 37-16 at halftime.

Lewis & Clark found an offensive rhythm late in the third quarter, using an 8-0 run to outscore Whitman 15-10 in the period. Carns started the run with a layup at the 2:17 mark. Two made free throws by Frederickson and back-to-back layups by Kendrick closed out the stretch.

Whitman's balanced scoring attack proved too much to overcome, as Christiane Carlisle led all scorers with 19 points. Korin Baker added 18 points, and Carly Martin contributed 15 for the Blues.

BY THE NUMBERS
  • Carns recorded a team-high four assists and three steals.
  • The Pioneers shot 48% (12-of-25) in the middle quarters after going just 2-for-14 in the first.
  • Bernard and Kendrick each grabbed two rebounds.
  • Whitman is undefeated against NCAA DIII opponents and has won by an average of 23.3 points; their lone loss this season was to NAIA Lewis & Clark State College in Idaho, 57-47. The Blues closest game this season was a 59-55 NWC road win against George Fox University. 
WHO'S NEXT
 
Lewis & Clark will travel to the University of Puget Sound on Friday night for an 8 p.m. matchup against the Loggers.
