Gloucester County College  67  Cecil CC 58

Gloucester County College Women's Basketball team defeated the "Seahawks" of Cecil College on Tuesday night to improve their record to 7-4.  The Roadrunners broke open a tight game in the second half with a 22-7 run to gather a six point lead that they never surrendered.  Lavon Childress led the way with 17 points followed by Liz Faulkner 14, Ta'Shay March 14, and Shaneen Datts 11 who were all in double figures for the Roadrunners.  Brianna Aversa and Lyndsay Valentine controlled the boards for the Roadrunners that helped spark the surge in the second half.  The sophomore tandem allowed GCC's guards to step outside and pressure the outside shooters while they patrolled the paint. Shaneen Datts also did a superb job defending Cecil star guard Bree Thomas. 

The Roadrunners will be back in action with a key Region 19 contest on Thursday night against Passaic CCC. The Roadrunners are currently 4-3 in Region 19 play with four region contests left before the winter recess.
