Ravens Spoil Senior Night For Mighty Macs

Naone-Carter Sisters Each Post Double-Double In Final Road Game Of The Season

MALVERN– The Rosemont Ravens Women's basketball team ruined Senior Night for the host Immaculata University two seniors by a final of 65-61. Sisters Leilani and Ke'alohilani Naone-Carter each finished with a double-double on their final road game of the year. With the win the Ravens improved to 7-17 (5-10 CSAC), while the Mighty Macs fell to 8-16 (8-7 CSAC).    

Just a little over one minute into the game Theresa Walsh got Immaculata on top 2-0, but that was short live as Leilani Naone-Carter and Ke'alohilani Naone-Carter each responded with a layup to get Rosemont up 4-2. The Mighty Macs came back quick scoring the next four points to take a 6-4 lead with 6:46 left. A basket by Shirle Brown and two free throws by Jasmyn Parker gave the Ravens an 8-6 edge. A layup by Walsh sent Immaculata on a 6-0 run to put them up 12-8, 7:46 into the first. A triple by the Mighty Macs Gina Cocci wrapped up the scoring for the frame with Immaculata leading 15-9.

The Naone-Carter sisters would once again come out strong to open the second as they combined to score six of the first nine points cutting the deficit to 18-15 with 8:04 to go in the half. A Kiley Stevens jumper sparked the Ravens on an 11-2 run to pull the birds in front 26-20, 6:58 into the quarter. The Mighty Macs outscored the Ravens 7-4 the remainder of the half, to head to the locker room trailing 30-27.

For the first 4:08 of the third period Rosemont and Immaculata went back-and-forth, trading baskets with a bucket from the Mighty Macs Bailey Krewson cutting the Ravens lead to one at, 35-34. A solo shot from the charity stripe by Ke'alohilani Naone-Carter led to a 10-2 Rosemont run that was finished off by another Ke'alohilani Naone-Carter free throw, which gave the Ravens a 45-36 lead with 4:01 to go. Immaculata edged Rosemont 6-5 for the rest of the segment to head to the fourth down 50-42.

A Shirle Brown layup 4:23 into the fourth put the Ravens in front 56-47. The Mighty Macs did not go quietly as they embarked on a 13-6 push finished off by a Tamyra Laws bucket with 35 seconds left, pulling Immaculata to within one at 62-61. A Shirle Brown duce and an Ayanna Thompson foul shot wrapped up the scoring for the night, and Rosemont left Route 202 with a 65-61 triumph.

Junior Leilani Naone-Carter recorded her sixth of the year adding 16 and 13 boards. Shirle Brown contributed 10 to the win as well.
