CARLISLE, Pa. --- Jamie Dawson (Doylestown, PA/Central Bucks West) scored a career-high 20 points in her final collegiate game and Steph Drevna added 14 points to lead Gettysburg past Dickinson 56-50 in Centennial Conference action on Saturday.
Dawson poured in 17 of her 20 points in the second half and finished the game shooting 8-for-9 from the floor before fouling out with 3:09 remaining. Drevna scored 12 of her 14 points in the first half and dished out a team-high four assists to help the Bullets (13-10, 7-6 CC) snap a season-high four-game losing streak.
Desi Fasnacht posted a double-double with 19 points and 13 rebounds for Dickinson (7-17, 4-9 CC) while Kristin Brady also reached double figures with 12 points.
Gettysburg never trailed on the afternoon and led by as many as 11 points in the first half before watching Dickinson fight back to tie the game at 37 with 12:24 remaining.
Dawson's putback at the 11:17 mark put the Bullets ahead to stay and Mandy Wilson drilled a 12-foot pull-up jumper to make it 41-37 with 10:40 left.
Dickinson pulled within 41-40 on a free throw by Brena Thimgan and a steal-and-layup from Kim Selemba, but Drevna hit a driving layup across the lane and Dawson followed with a three-point play to push the Gettysburg lead back to 46-40.
The Red Devils went on a 7-2 run to pull within 48-47, but again Dawson answered by hitting a turnaround jumper and then canning two free throws to push the Gettysburg lead back to 52-47 before fouling out with 3:09 to play.
With their top scorer on the bench, the Bullets responded by holding Dickinson scoreless over the next three minutes. Gettysburg also failed to find the basket down the stretch until Kelsey Williams knocked down four free throws in the game's final 28 seconds to seal the victory.
The Bullets threatened to run away with the game in the early stages, outscoring Dickinson 10-0 over the first 4 minutes and 23 seconds before Brady put the Red Devils on the board with a 12-foot jumper with 13:35 left in the first half.
Behind 12 points from Drevna, Gettysburg pushed its lead to 27-16 before Dickinson went on a 10-0 run to pull within 27-26 in the early stages of the second half.
