Binghamton won the consolation game of Minnesota's SUBWAY Classic, defeating Nevada 58-52. Senior guard Orla O'Reilly once again led the team in scoring with 19 points and now tops the confernce with 18.5 points per game. She scored five of her points in the final 30 seconds to help the Bearcats hang on to their third win of the season. Classmate Viive Rebane posted her second double-double of the season with 10 points and 12 rebounds.

The Catamounts won their own TD Bank Classic for the first time since 2007 with arguably the team's most impressive win of the season. Vermont rolled early against Saint Joseph's and defeated the Hawks 80-67. It was the team's season-high for points scored led by rooke Niki Taylor's 15 points.

"I'm so proud of our team.  They work so hard and they deserve to feel this.  You can see the effort on the floor and how hard they work and how much they love playing together.  I think all of our hard work in practice is starting to pay off," said Vermont head coach Lori Gear McBride.

In Catonsville Saturday night, UMBC gave No. 9 Maryland just about everything the Terps could handle, but fell 70-59. It was the lowest margin of victory for Maryland this season, and the Retrievers had cut the deficit down to three points several times. Seniors Erin Brown and Michelle Kurowski each tallied 14 points.
