Women's Basketball Falls to Vermont

BALTIMORE - UMBC couldn't fend off the defending America East champions, Vermont, on Thursday evening, falling 69-47 inside Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena. The Catamounts move to 7-1 in league play while UMBC's five-game league win streak ended, dropping the Retrievers to 5-3. 

Jade Tillman reached double figures for the 13th straight contest, finishing with 10 points and eight rebounds for the Retrievers. Eight other Retrievers scored in the loss, with Heidi Williams' eight points the next highest total. Delaney Yarborough added four points and seven rebounds off the bench for UMBC. 

The Catamounts used an explosive second quarter to build a 20-point halftime lead after a tight first quarter that saw the Retrievers hold the top offensive team in the conference to just 11 points. Nikola Priede scored nine of her 13 first-half points in the second quarter. 

UMBC used a 10-0 3rd quarter run to trim the gap to 40-30, getting a Gabby Scott three from the top of the key and a Tiara Bellamy three-point play. However, Vermont immediately answered with eight straight thanks to a pair of triples from Malia Lenz and Emma Haan to push the lead back to 18.

The America East's fourth-leading scorer, Nikola Priede, was a tough cover for the Retrievers, finishing with 21 points and 12 rebounds. Keira Hanson added 13 points for Vermont. 

UMBC hosts UAlbany on Saturday at 2 p.m. as it celebrates National Girls and Women in Sports Day.
