ALLENTOWN, Pa. - The Rosemont College women's basketball team opened up their game against the host Cedar Crest College Falcons with a 17-2 run and the Ravens were never seriously threatened after that as Rosemont cruised to a 72-55 victory.

The Ravens managed to hold the Falcons at bay in the second period, with the host team getting no closer than 10 points from the Ravens, and that was in the very early stages of the half.
