STEVENSON, Md. - Stevenson women's basketball junior forward Kristen Steiner (Fallston/Fallston) posted her second double double of the season and seventh of her career as the Mustangs fell to Mary Washington in a CAC contest at Student Union Gymnasium Wednesday evening, 50-27.

The Eagles (7-3, 3-0 CAC) remained unbeaten in conference play, just half-a-game behind No. 7-ranked Marymount (Va.) who improved its CAC record to 4-0 after holding York (Pa.) to just 27 points in a 62-27 win at home Wednesday.

Steiner had 10 points and a season-high 13 rebounds while adding three steals. She was the lone Mustang in double figures as freshman guard Vanessa Rice (Oxon Hill/National Christian Academy) finished with a career-high eight points.

Sophomore guard Amanda Craig (Wilmington, Del./St. Elizabeth) tied a season-high with eight rebounds, two shy of her career-high.

Mary Washington never trailed in the game and jumped out to a 12-6 lead in the game's first five minutes before taking a 26-15 advantage into halftime. Neither team shot the ball well in the opening half with the Eagles shooting slightly better than Stevenson at 28.1 percent.

The Mustangs got no closer than 11 in the second half and Kate Carlezon's jumped with 47 seconds left gave Mary Washington its largest lead and proved to be the margin of victory.

Stevenson was held to its lowest point total since the Eagles handed the team a 60-26 defeat at home in the Mustangs' season finale a year ago.

In the last four meetings against Mary Washington, Stevenson has been held under 40 points each time while averaging just 30.3 per game and surrending an average of 64.0 per contest.

Jenna McRae led the Eagles with a game-high 16 points. Katie Wimmer and Kate Vennergrund each added nine.

The Mustangs have seven days to prepare for its next contest as they host seventh-ranked Marymount (Va.) next Wednesday, January 13 at 5:00 p.m.
