NEWBURGH, NY - The CMSV Women's Basketball team returned to action on Saturday afternoon, traveling to take on Mount Saint Mary's in a key Skyline Conference matchup. The Dolphins were looking to complete the season sweep of the Knights and inch closer to the top spot in the women's basketball standings. The Dolphins struggled offensivley and dropped a 70-49 decision to the Knights, putting CMSV at 13-7 overall and 9-4 in conference play.

Kelly Oliver was the lone Mount player to score in double figures, as the sophomore guard scored 11 points. Dez Brown and Christina Barone both chipped in with nine points.

The Dolphins struggled to find their touch on the offensive end shooting only 30% from the field and connecting on just 7-of-30 from 3-point land, while only getting to the free throw line seven times. 

The first quarter was back and forth the entirety of the 10 minutes. Two three-point plays kept the Dolphins close in the first quarter, with Kelly Nola converting on at the 2:25 mark to pull the team within a point and just over a minute later, Brown converted one to once again pull the Dolphins within one point. 

Nola make a layup in the final seconds of the period to give the Dolphins a 17-16 lead at the end of one quarter. 

In the second quarter, the Dolphins only scored 10 points as a team and didn't score over the final 5:27 of the period after a Brown jumper gave CMSV a 27-25 lead. 

The Dolphins only scored 22 points in the third and fourth quarters combined, making only eight field goals.
