Women's Basketball edges Ryerson 77-74

Box Score The No. 1 Lancer women's basketball team edged the Ryerson Rams 77-74 in a tightly contested contest on Saturday night at the Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto, ON.
 
Windsor moves to 4-0 on the season and remains in first place in the OUA, while Ryerson suffered their first loss of the season and are now 3-1 on the year.
 
Windsor built a 17-3 lead midway through the first quarter, until a 9-0 run by the Rams brought the home team within one at 19-18. The Lancers led 21-18 at the break.
 
In the second Windsor started strong once again, going up by nine halfway through the frame. Ryerson tied the game up at 35-35 before a three-point play by Jocelyn LaRocque ended the first half with the Lancers leading 38-35.
 
Ryerson started the third quarter on a 12-0 run and didn't allow a Windsor field goal for nearly four minutes to start the frame to take a 47-38 lead.
 
Korissa Williams sparked a 12-0 run in response for Windsor as the Lancers took the lead right back at 50-47 with three minutes to play in the quarter. The two squads traded buckets to close the quarter tied at 53-53 heading into the fourth.
 
Back-to-back three pointers from Ryerson's Keneca Pingue-Giles gave the Rams an early four point lead in the quarter and Ryerson's lead grew to eight making it 63-55 with 7:35 remaining.
 
Once again Williams sparking a comeback for the Lancers before Caitlyn Longmuir drained three three-pointers with less than two minutes to go. Longmuir's last three-ball gave Windsor a 74-71 advantage and the Lancers made some clutch free throws down the stretch to maintain the three point advantage. 

Windsor was led by Williams with 20 points, while Cheyanne Roger had 16 points and 11 rebounds and birthday girl Longmuir had 13 points.
 
The Lancers will hit the road once again next week when they travel to Thunder Bay, ON for a single game against the Lakehead Thunderwolves on Saturday November 22nd at 6:00pm.
