MANCHESTER, NH – Southern New Hampshire trailed by just one with under nine minutes to play, but No. 3 Bentley pulled away late for a 70-55 road win on Thursday night.
The Falcons poured in 28 first-quarter points and led by as many as 17 points in the opening stanza. The Penmen then won the second and third quarters and trimmed the lead down to one in the fourth, but they couldn’t completely overcome the big deficit.
SNHU was led by 15 points from Meghan Gordon, while Bentley was paced by 15 apiece from Kylie DuCharme and Maggie Whitmore, while Niya Morgen added 11 of her own.
With the loss, the Penmen fall to 6-5 overall and 2-3 in Northeast-10 Conference play. Bentley improves to 12-1 on the season and 4-1 in the NE10.
