Late Run Lifts Centenary Past CC

Box Score Senior forward Korbyn Ukasick scored a season-high 19 points, but Colorado College dropped a 60-52 decision to Centenary College on Friday night at Reid Arena.

After falling behind 48-43 with a little less than five minutes to play in the fourth quarter, the Ladies hit 10 of 12 free throws and closed out the win with a 17-4 run.

The Tigers were within a point when senior guard Christina Bowman sank two of three free throws with 1:18 to play, however the hosts went scoreless the rest of the way.

Freshman guard Nia Duplain grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds and added six points for CC, which dropped to 2-19 overall and 1-9 in the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference.

Sophomore guard Jasmine Morris led Centenary with 19 points, shooting 5-for-13 from the floor and 9-for-16 from the charity stripe.

Sophomore guard Savanah Doty scored 13 points, while junior guard Peyton Hurst added 12 points and a team-high nine rebounds.

Doty scored five points during the opening 2:17 as Centenary raced to an early 8-0 lead.

The Tigers answered with a 13-1 run and took their first lead when Ukasick hit a jumper with 2:47 to play in the first quarter.

Colorado College took a pair of four-point leads during the second frame, only to see the Ladies knot the score at 21 on a layup by sophomore guard Sheridan Smith with 1:21 to go.

Ukasick's three-pointer from the top of the key gave CC a 24-21 lead, but senior guard DeiAnna Hall's deuce pulled Centenary to within a point after 20 minutes.

Centenary improved to 6-15 overall and 2-8 in the SCAC.

The Tigers play host to Austin College at 11 a.m. Sunday.
