Lady Rams Solid as Wood in 85-43 Victory over Concordia

Philadelphia, PA- Sophomore forward Christine Wooding (Northfield, NJ/ Mainland) filled the stat sheet with 18 points, 10 boards and two blocks as the Philadelphia University Lady Rams (9-9, 7-3 CACC) knocked off the Concordia College Clippers (1-18, 1-10 CACC) 85-43 at the Gallagher Athletic Center on Saturday afternoon.

PhilaU's stats gave Coach Tom Shirley something to smile about, going nearly 50% from field goal range and 89% from the charity stripe.

Lady Ram senior center Jessica Romano (Horsham, PA/ Hatboro-Horsham) led all scorers with 22 points and seven rebounds, while Dana Rommel led the Clippers with 11 points.

A 23-23 tie at 5:47 in the first half would be the final time CC would be considered a danger, as the Lady Rams ended the stanza on a 15-2 run to lead 38-25 at the break.  

PhilaU junior forward Ashley Gaskins (Harrisburg, PA/ Central Dauphin) exploded in the second half, racking up a game-high 11 rebounds on the night and 12 points- along with three steals.

The Lady Rams continued to roll as senior forward Kate Brennan (Stratford, NJ/ Sterling) hit a bucket at 14:02 to make it 53-30, and the home team never looked back.  Brennan finished the day with 14 points and four assists.

Also providing PhilaU with a boost was senior guard Nina Brascetta (Philadelphia, PA/ Archbishop Ryan) who dished out eight assists to go with nine points.

PhilaU takes the court next on Thursday (2/4) as they host Georgian Court University at 6:00 p.m.in a single game at the Gallagher Athletic Center.
