Seahawks Coming off of Rout Over Lafayette
Last time out, on Wednesday, December 9 at the Spiro Sports Center, sophomore forward Sofia Roma (Richmond Hill, NY/Nazareth Regional) recorded a double-double with 11 points and a career-tying 18 rebounds while senior guard Jazmine Hamlet (New York, NY/Francis Lewis) tossed in a career-high 14 points to lead the Seahawks to an impressive 69-48 victory over Lafayette at the Spiro Sports Center. After Lafayette jumped out to a quick 6-2 lead, Wagner answered with an emphatic, well-executed and game-changing 18-0 run that catapulted the Green & White to a 20-6 lead. After the Leopards ended the quarter, and the run, with a bucket to make it 20-8 after one quarter, the Seahawks widened the margin to 36-20 at halftime and never looked back. The biggest lead of the game came with 6:34 left in the game on a three-pointer by junior guard Lyndsay Rowe (South River, NJ/St. John Vianney), that made it a 30-point game, at 64-34. Wagner received contributions from a host of players on a night when the Green & White were without the services of three injured players for the second straight game. Junior guard Jasmine Nwajei (Rockaway Park, NY/Murry Bergtraum), the reigning Northeast Conference (NEC) Player of the Week and coming off a 32-point game at Yale (12/6), added 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists to the Seahawk cause tonight. Rowe tallied a season-high 10 points on 3-of-6 shooting which included a 2-of-4 effort from three-point range. Sophomore guard Tanasia Russell (Vineland, NJ/Vineland) provided a spark early for the  Seahawks, scoring all nine of her points in the opening half while junior Jackie Dluhi  (Middletown, NJ/Middletown South) delivered another sterling performance with eight points, on 4-of-8 shooting, to go with seven rebounds and two assists against a tall Leopard lineup. Junior forward Taylor Butigian (Rockaway Park, NY/Christ the King) came off the bench to score five points and grab six rebounds. Lafayette had just one player in double figures in 5-6 senior guard Jamie O'Hare, a St. Peter's High School graduate here on Staten Island, who hit for 11. The Leopards' leading scorer entering the game with a 15.6 average, O'Hare was harassed into a 5-for-24 shooting night but did dish out five assists with three steals without committing a single turnover in 38 minutes of play. 6-3 center Harriet Ottewill-Soulsby added nine points for Lafayette.

Two out of Three
In posting their second convincing win in the last three games, the Seahawks' victory over Lafayette came one week their convincing 76-53 win over NJIT on December 2. 
 
Roma Matches Career High On Glass 
Roma's 18-rebound night vs. Lafayette tied her career high, originally set at Saint Francis (1/2/15), and helped the Seahawks gain a 52-36 edge in the rebounding department. Wagner outshot Lafayette 42%-30%, while making 73% (11-15) of its free throws as compared to the Leopards who went to the line just six times, hitting three (50%).
 
Success Despite Being Shorthanded
Sidelined for the second straight game due to injury against Lafayette were fifth-year senior guard Alexis Smith (Medford, NY/St. John the Baptist/U. of Illinois), senior guard Jordyn Peck (Shaker Heights, OH/Shaker Heights), and freshman guard Julia McClure (Secaucus, NJ/Secaucus).

About the Lady Hornets
Delaware St. comes into today's play with a 1-7 record but will be well rested having seven days of rest. Last time out, on December 4, the Hornets nearly erased a 20-point deficit with a 27-point output in the third quarter, but it was not enough as the Lady Hornets suffered a 74-58 road loss to the Fordham Rams last Saturday.  With this defeat, DSU failed to register back-to-back road wins for the first time since 2012-13, whereas the Rams snapped a three-game slide.  When the final buzzer sounded, three players scored in double figures for the Lady Hornets, led by guard Mikah Aldridge totaling a career-high 24 points (6-of-9).  Aldridge also went a perfect 10-for-10 from the charity stripe, which marked the second time in the last three games she's been perfect while registering double digit attempts and makes at the line.  Off the bench, forward Amber Bogard tallied 11 points (4-of-13), whereas freshman Bobbi Floyd turned in her best performance of the season with 10 points (4-of-5) and seven boards.
