CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.-  The Wilson women's basketball was in action today against the visiting Eagles of St. Elizabeth in Colonial States Athletic Conference action. St. Elizabeth used a big second quarter to upend the Phoenix, 93-58, behind 30 points from Rakiyah Sellers. With the loss, the Phoenix fall to 2-14 overall and 1-11 in CSAC play. 

How It Happened: After the Eagles scored the first four points of the contest, Jordyn Day (Richmond, Va., Varina) got the Phoenix on the board with a deep three-pointer. Later on in the quarter, and trailing 10-7, Wilson pounded the ball inside where Tioleaoauli Posiulai (Waipahu, Hawaii, University Laboratory School) connected on a layup. A late three from St. Elizabeth gave them a 13-9 lead to end the first period. 

The Eagles kicked off the second quarter with a three before Jordyn Day hit a three of her own to get Wilson back within four.

Ta'Niya Kees (Baltimore, Md., Our Lady of Mount Carmel School) was able to put together a strong finish to the quarter, scoring five straight points to put the score at 68-39 in favor of the visitors. 

The Eagles quickly extended their lead up to 43 with a 16-0 run to start the fourth quarter and would continue to roll to a 93-58 victory over the Phoenix.
