Game Recap: Women's Basketball |
EMMITSBURG, Md. – In a special game for head coach Vanessa Blair-Lewis, she picked up her 350th career-win as the George Mason women's basketball team dominated Mount St. Mary's for four quarters en route to a 47-point victory.
 
The 30 points are the fewest by an opponent since Jan. 12, 1991 when the Patriots (8-1) held UNC Wilmington to 28 points in a 53-28 CAA victory.
 
Additionally, the Patriots' 47-point win is the most on the Mount's home court since another Mount St. Mary's alum, Agnus Berenato '80, led her Pitt Panthers to a 51-point victory in 2007.
 
Five Patriots scored in double-figures, led by a career-high matching 15 from freshman Kennedy Harris. Also pacing the high-powered offense were Taylor Jameson and Paula Suárez, who matched their own career-highs of six assists each.
 
It was all Mason from the get-go, as it limited the Mount (3-5) to just six points in the opening stanza. Led by 12 points from freshman Kennedy Harris, the Patriots shot a blistering 47% from the floor and 50% from three-point range to lead 28-6 after the first.
 
The Patriots continued their strong defensive stance in the second quarter, holding the Mountaineers without a three-pointer through the first 20 minutes. After a layup by the Mount with just under two minutes remaining, Mason closed the half on a 6-0 run to stretch the lead to 28 at the halftime break.
 
Mason opened the third quarter on a 10-point run, led by six points from Sonia Smith, including a four-point play to force a Mount St. Mary's timeout. The Mount was able to connect on their first three of the game, but a stifling Mason defense still limited it to just 25% shooting as it extended the lead with one quarter remaining.
 
Sophomore Page Greenburg highlighted an electric offensive performance for the Patriots in the fourth quarter, hitting four shots from deep to set a new career-high of 12 points and score over half of Mason's points in the quarter. Three other Patriots hit three-pointers in the quarter as Mason rolled to its second-largest margin of victory this season.
 
PATRIOT POINTS
  • Joining Kennedy Harris in double-figures were Page Greenburg (12), Sonia Smith (11), Zahirah Walton (11) and Taylor Jameson (10), marking the sixth time this season that four or more Patriots scored 10+ in a game
  • Mason won the rebound battle, 56-33. Walton, Jazmyn Doster and Amy O'Hara all pulled down a game-best seven rebounds
  • The two three-pointers by the Mount matched the season-low by an opponent this season and the 8.3% was the lowest by an opponent (2-24)
  • On the other hand, Mason hit a season-best 13 three-pointers, with at least two from five different players
  • The Patriots forced the Mount into 22 turnovers, the fifth time this season an opponent has committed 20+ turnovers. Mason tallied nine steals, led by a career-high three from Walton

Mason will have an extended break before continuing its' road-trip at East Carolina on Monday, Dec. 18. Tip off with the Pirates is set for 6 p.m.
