NEW HAVEN, CT - The CMSV women's basketball team returned to action Tuesday night as they took on Albertus Magnus College in a non-conference matchup. The Dolphins lost 81-65 dropping their record to 9-8 on the season.

Brittany Carroll led the Dolphins with 14 points, on 3-of-5 shooting from 3-point land. Alexandra Gundermann chipped in with 13 points on 2-of-4 shooting from distance. As a team, CMSV shot 45% from beyond the arc during the game.

CMSV started out the game with three straight baskets  taking an early 6-3 lead but that was quickly answered by a 15-0 Falcon run to take an 18-6 lead, a lead they would not surrender for the rest of the game. 

In the second quarter, the Falcons led by double digits the majority of the period as both teams traded baskets but Albertus Magnus would end the quarter scoring five straight points to take a 47-31 lead into halftime.

The Dolphins would chip away at the lead in the fourth quarter, after Christina Barone nailed a 3-pointer to make the score 66-58 and a jumper by Gundermann with just over five minutes left would cut the lead to 69-61, but it would be CMSV's last field goal. The Falcons would close the game out on an 11-4 to secure the victory.

CMSV returns to action Saturday January 30 when they will host Farmingdale State in the Sharp Center at 1pm.
