The visiting Lions of Penn State Behrend, however, steadied themselves late in the game and held on for a 69-66 non-conference win.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"> At the tail end of an evenly-played first half, Penn State Behrend scored the final eight points of the second quarter to take a 38-31 lead at the break. In the third quarter, the Lions&#8217; lead stretched out to a dozen points on three separate occasions.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>Kenyon (2-6) then looked to <dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/athletics.kenyon.edu\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/anissa-hardy\/7294\" rel=\"smarttag noopener\" rev=\"7294\" target=\"_blank\">Anissa Hardy<\/a><\/dfn> to lead a surge that saw the Owls cut the deficit down to six points heading into the final quarter of play. In that brief run, Hardy scored four points on a layup and a couple of free throws.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>Trailing 51-45, Kenyon got another bucket from Hardy to start play in the fourth. <dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/athletics.kenyon.edu\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/katie-orefice\/6664\" rel=\"smarttag noopener\" rev=\"6664\" target=\"_blank\">Katie Orefice<\/a><\/dfn> followed with a field goal and Cooke hit one of two free throws to bring the Owls within one point.\u00a0<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>About 50 seconds later, <dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/athletics.kenyon.edu\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/alyssa-gest\/7290\" rel=\"smarttag noopener\" rev=\"7290\" target=\"_blank\">Alyssa Gest<\/a><\/dfn> buried a three-pointer that put Kenyon ahead 53-51.

Back-to-back three-pointers from Rachel Majewski and Morgan Altavilla put Penn State Behrend back in front, 62-60, with 2:47 remaining.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>Those three-pointers ignited a 9-0 Lions run that all but decided the outcome.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>Kenyon&#8217;s <dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/athletics.kenyon.edu\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/mikayla-rudolph\/7292\" rel=\"smarttag noopener\" rev=\"7292\" target=\"_blank\">Mikayla Rudolph<\/a><\/dfn>, who finished with eight points, snapped a long distance three-pointer to bring the game within four points, but Penn State Behrend answered again and only a last-second bucket from Rudolph made it a three-point final.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-93f7c280-7fff-bfa9-5051-d9a3f44b30e0\"><br \/>In addition to Cooke&#8217;s 15, the Owls got a dozen points from Hardy and 11 apiece from Orefice and <dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/athletics.kenyon.edu\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/bela-krslovic\/6667\" rel=\"smarttag noopener\" rev=\"6667\" target=\"_blank\">Bela Krslovic<\/a><\/dfn>.
