Macalester 53, Crown 40

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Elise Pagel scored 19 of her game-high 26 points in the second half to lead Macalester to its first win of the season, a 53-40 win over visiting Crown Friday night. The Scots improve to 1-5 on the season, while Crown drops to 3-3.

Brittini Chicuata posted a double-double for Macalester, finishing with 11 points and 11 rebounds while adding three steals. Pagel, who went 8-for-9 from the line, also grabbed seven boards. Brittany Lewis provided seven points, six rebounds and three assists.

Jill Stumbo scored 17 points and picked up seven steals to lead the Purple Storm. Amy Berge dished out five assists and grabbed six rebounds.

Macalester used good free throw shooting and defense to win. The Scots went 21-for-29 from the foul line (compared to 8-for-19 for Crown). Defensively, they held Crown to just three points over a key 17 minute stretch when they out-scored the visitors 24-3 between the 13:21 mark of the first half and the 15:00 mark of the second half.

Crown jumped out to an early 9-3 lead after seven minutes, but Macalester out-scored their guests 14-3 from that point until halftime to grab a 17-12 lead at the intermission. The Scots extended the margin to 15 points at 27-12 by scoring the first 10 points of the second half and were never threatened after that. There were just 29 points scored by the two teams in the first half, but the second half went much better as they combined for 64 points.
