LANGHORNE, PA - Keystone College used a 54.8 percent shooting clip in the opening frame to help the visitors slide past the Crimson Eagles by a 61-42 margin.
The Giants limited PBU to just seven field goals and 28.0 percent shooting throughout the first 20 minutes and were able to build up a comfortable 40-17 cushion by the intermission.
Despite a much more efficient second half from the host group, PBU was unable to overcome the double digit deficit, dropping their second straight game in the process. The Crimson Eagles were able to outscore Keystone 25-21 throughout the second period but it was too little, too late for the 2-13 Crimson Eagles.
The Giants posted a 20-13 edge in points off of turnovers for the contest, forcing PBU into their sixth 25-plus turnover performance of the year. The host squad also failed to utilize the free throw line throughout, going just one for six from the line for the game.
Hannah McCardle, Sara Poole, and Careth Herron each put up nine points in the losing effort. Haley Weber chipped in with seven.
The Crimson Eagles will get back into game action on Thursday during a match-up with Marywood University on the road. Game time against the Pacers is 6:00 pm.
