BALTIMORE-- Janee'a Summers (Bound Brook, N.J.) scored her 1,000th career point, but Loyola used a big second half run to rally past the UMBC Women's Basketball team, 63-57, on Wednesday night at Reitz Arena.

• Summers scored five points in the first, including her 1,000th career point
• UMBC caught fire in the second quarter, shooting 8-14 from the field and 2-3 from three. UMBC used a late run and a buzzer-beating jumper from Loan-Anh Johnson (Wichita, Kan.) to take a 29-21 lead into the break
