Box score

SALISBURY, Md. - Stevenson University women's basketball senior guard Tara Galvin (Lititz, Pa./Manheim Township) scored 10 of her season-high 19 points in the second half, but it wasn't enough as Salisbury scored the game's final four points en route to a 56-52 victory Monday evening at the Maggs Center.

Janah Johnson totaled her second double double of the season with 20 points and 14 rebounds, both game-highs, to lead the Sea Gulls (3-13, 3-4 CAC) to their third win in the last five games.

Mustang sophomore guard Amanda Craig (Wilmington, Del./St. Elizabeth) hit the first of two free throws with 20 seconds remaining in the second half to tie the game for the sixth time.

After Craig missed the second, Salisbury got the rebound and called a timeout with 15 seconds left to set-up an attempt to win the game in regulation.

Johnson's attempt with six seconds to play was off the mark, but she grabbed the rebound and scored on a putback in the paint while being fouled by Stevenson sophomore forward Kristen Steiner (Forest Hill/Fallston) with just four seconds remaining.

Johnson would miss the free throw, but Kylie Hall, who gave the Sea Gulls their attempt at a game-winner by getting the rebound following Craig's miss, grabbed Johnson's missed free throw which led to an insurance layup by Glen Charleton with one second left.

The Mustangs (3-12, 1-5 CAC) trailed Salisbury by six at halftime, 29-23, but outscored the Sea Gulls by two in the second half thanks to hitting nine free throws which equalled the amount of field goals they totaled from the floor.

However, Stevenson made just nine of their 14 second half attempts from the line in the second half, missing five of their last 12 attempts over the final 13:41. During that time, the team saw a five-point lead evaporate as Salisbury outscored the Mustangs, 22-13.

Steiner finished the game with two points, two rebounds, four blocks and two steals in 22 minutes before fouling out while freshman guard Joy Bettis (Laurel/Montrose Christian) scored 10 points, her third game out of the last five in double figures.

Senior forward Ashley Burrell (Baltimore/Institute of Notre Dame) had three points and a team-high eight rebounds.

Stevenson returns home to face Hood on Wednesday night at 6:00 p.m., on Faculty and Staff Night.
