Thomas College (NCAA DIII) traveled to Auburn to take on the Lady Mustangs and found themselves in a pinch - early and often. The Terriers had no answer for CM's swarming full court pressure defense or overall depth. The Mustangs jumped out to a 6-0 lead behind 3's from Gabby Foy (Wilton, ME) and Susie French (Greenland, NH) and never looked back.
French led the way defensively sniping 11 steals to record the team's first double-double of the season. Foy, who hit three 3's, finished with 17 points and Samantha Bruce (Madison, ME), who made her first career start, finished with a game-high 22 points (3-6 3FG).
The Mustangs bench was just as effective; Jasmine Ramos (Kissimmee, FL) played a great floor game, finishing with 10 points, 6 assists (team-high), and 5 rebounds. Hannah Champagne (Lisbon, NH) hit a 3 to finish with 5 points, and took 1 of the Lady Mustang's 4 offensive fouls.
CM assisted on 20 of their 28 made field goals, and built a 34 point lead deep in the second half.
The Lady Mustangs will be back in action on Friday evening when they travel to Worcester, MA to take on Quinsigamond CC in a non-conference tilt.
