Game Summary
  • First Quarter: Richson started red-hot in the opening stanza as she tallied her first of a quarter-best four made three-pointers 48 seconds into the contest. The Bullets marched on to an 11-2 edge off another Richson trey at 2:56. Gettysburg closed out the quarter with a 7-3 run to lead 15-5.

Richson continued with the offensive domination as she accrued all seven points for Gettysburg to make it 25-12 at halftime. Richson outscored the Diplomats with her 19-point performance in the first half.
  • Third Quarter: Senior Carly Rice (Pennington, N.J./The Pennington School) added to the three-point stat line as she drained two during a 10-0 spurt to extend Gettysburg's lead 35-10. The Bullets defense kept the Diplomats at bay, as the hosts did not score in double-figures for the third straight quarter. The Orange and Blue maintained the 44-21 advantage.  
  • Fourth Quarter: Five different players scored for the Bullets with Williams leading the way, with a season-high 10 points. The margin never dropped below 22-points, and the Bullets remain as the lone team undefeated in conference play.
