Box Score MARIETTA, Ohio – For the second time in two weeks, the Kenyon College women's basketball team faced off with the College of Mount Saint Joseph Lions in a tournament consolation game. Sunday, the Ladies duplicated their previous result and knocked off the Lions, 74-64, in the final day of Marietta College's annual Jim Meagle Turkey Shoot Tournament.

Kenyon, which defeated Mount Saint Joseph, 89-69, on November 16 in the consolation game of the MSJ Tip-Off Tournament, improved its overall record to 4-3 with Sunday's win over the Lions, who slipped to 0-5 this season.

Once again, the catalyst for Kenyon was senior sharp-shooter Maureen Hirt. One night after pumping in 26 points in a tournament-opening loss to Ohio Valley, Hirt rang up another 23 points against the Lions. She also grabbed a season-high 12 rebounds and notched her first double-double of the year. Overall, Hirt had a combined 46 points, 18 rebounds, and five assists during the weekend tournament. She was named Kenyon's lone representative on the Turkey Shoot's All-Tournament team.

Three other Kenyon starters also reached double-digit scoring marks Sunday. Senior guard Maggie Boelter connected on 2-of-3 three-point attempts and scored 14 points. Down low, senior Autumn Anderson and junior Lauren Kriete each posted a dozen points. Anderson also grabbed nine boards and narrowly missed her first double-double of the 2013-14 campaign.

From the opening tip, the Ladies took control. Hirt and Anderson nailed the first two buckets of the game. Boelter and Anderson then converted back-to-back layups and the Ladies raced to an 8-0 lead. Boelter later dropped in a three-pointer and Hirt tacked on a close-range field goal to give Kenyon a 13-1 advantage.

It took Mount Saint Joseph nearly six minutes before it scored its first field goal of the game. The slow start cost the Lions, who never got closer than seven points for the remainder of the first half. Kenyon went ahead by as many as 15 before settling on a 42-32 halftime lead.

The lead grew to as many as 18 points in the second half and allowed the Ladies to hand over some extra playing time to their reserves, who preserved the ten-point win.
