The Albright College women's basketball team held off host Centenary College to win the Lady Cyclone Tip-Off Tournament championship game, 60-54 on Saturday.

Sophomore Kelecia Harris totaled 20 points and 11 rebounds, and was named the Tournament MVP. The center averaged 18.5 points and 12.0 rebounds over two contests, in just 22 minutes per game.

Another sophomore center, Emily O'Donnell, was also named to the All-Tournament team. O'Donnell had a double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds, while blocking three shots.

Junior guard Amanda Tiritilli had a game-high six assists. Senior Meghan Boyle added seven points and six rebounds.

The Lions never trailed, and took a 35-27 lead at halftime. Freshman Niavanni Grant made a layup, although she missed the and-one opportunity. O'Donnell then converted a three-point play the next time down the floor to make it 35-25.

Centenary crept to within two early in the second half on a three-point play from Mallory George, and then again on a jumper from former Albright player Kimberly Oseija that made it 37-35.

The Lions answered with baskets from Kadijah Bishop and Harris, followed by a Jessica Venturelli three-pointer and a 44-35 lead.

Centenary's Ally Fugnitti sank a three-pointer with 3:20 left to keep things close at 55-50, but Harris responded with a hoop at the other end.

Albright improves to 2-0 on the season and will play at Moravian next Saturday.
