The University of Maine women’s basketball continued to roll Wednesday night, dominating their trip to the University of Massachusetts-Lowell by a score of 74-46 for their 10th straight victory. The win moves the Black Bears up to 18-6 overall and a near-perfect 10-1 in America East Conference play in which they currently sit in second place.

UMaine ran an efficient offense all night, shooting just under 60 percent from the field and 53.3 percent from beyond the arc. They also locked down on the Riverhawks defensively, who shot 29.4 percent from the field and 25 percent from beyond the arc.

Third-year forward Liz Wood led all scorers with 21 points on the night, adding six boards and five assists. Third-year guard Chantel Charles continued her hot streak, chipping in 12 points.

Both teams came out of the gate firing offensively, with the score tied at 16-16 halfway through the first frame.

Charles was able to put the Black Bears ahead, converting an and-one layup before nailing a three-pointer on the following possession. Third-year guard Lauren Bodine chipped in a pair of three-pointers before the end of the half, which ended in a 45-26 UMaine advantage.

Bodine, who has been quiet so far this season, connected on all four of her three-point attempts for 12 points on the night.

UMass Lowell third-year guard Jasmine McRoy hit a pair of three-pointers to cut into the UMaine lead to start off the second half, but good team offense from the Black Bears kept the Riverhawks at arms length.

McRoy scored a team-high 14 assists with three boards.

UMaine showed their depth in the second half with the game in hand, as 34 of their points came from the bench.

The Black Bears dominated the undersized Riverhawks on the boards, outrebounding them 36-22.

UMaine second-year guard Sigi Koizar was the main facilitator for the Black Bears offensively, dishing out five assists and grabbing four boards.
