Courtney Warley (West Chester, PA / Bishop Shanahan) had 18 points and 12 rebounds to lead Manhattan to a 75-70 win over Saint Peter's.
Playing before a nationally televised audience, the Jaspers and the Peacocks traded body blows over the first three periods, before the Green & White took control in the fourth. Down by two with just over nine minutes to play, junior
Dee Dee Davis (Bronx, NY / Truman) hit a three pointer off a
Christina Katsamouri (So., Thessaloniki, Greece / Hellenic College of Thessaloniki) pass. Katsamouri then converted a three-point play, before draining two more from the charity stripe in staking Manhattan to what would prove to be an insurmountable 59-53 lead with 7:03 to play.
Saint Peter's would make it a one-possession game on three more occasions, but was unable to further dent the lead.
The Jaspers improve to 8-6, while the Peahens are now 6-10.
