LOWELL, MASS. (December 4, 2001) - Junior tri-captain Jennifer Webster (Braintree, Mass./Braintree) registered 25 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Franklin Pierce University
women's basketball team to a 55-54 victory over UMass Lowell in Northeast-10 Conference action in the Costello Gym.

The Riverhawks led 25-24 heading into the second half and opened up the half with an 11-4 run with 14:47 left to play. The Ravens fought back, however, and went on a 10-0 run to take a 39-36 lead at the 10:11 mark. The teams battled back and forth in the final minutes of the game, but the Ravens put away the Riverhawks for good when Webster drained a three-pointer at the 3:30 mark.

Webster was outstanding, sinking 7-for-10 (70.0%) from the field, 4-for-4 (100.0%) from the three-point line, and 7-for-7 (100.0%) from the line to notch her first double-double of the season. Sophomore Susan Ocitti (Cambridge, Mass./Cambridge R&L) chipped in eight points and seven rebounds for the Ravens, while senior tri-captain Emily Liskow (Strafford, N.H./Coe-Brown) added nine points in the win.

Junior Itxaso Mallaviabarrena led the Riverhawks with 15 points and five rebounds. Dragana Rabota followed with ten points, eight rebounds and five assists.
