Doran's 13-point third quarter leads No. 22 Bentley to victory at Franklin Pierce

RINDGE, N.H. – Four Falcons scored in double figures to lead the No. 22 Bentley women's basketball team to a 73-48 win at Franklin Pierce Saturday afternoon.

Brennan Doran matched her career-high in scoring with 13 points, all of which she scored during Bentley's 30-point third quarter. She shot 5-for-6 from the floor, including 2-for-2 from beyond the arc, and Doran made her one free-throw attempt. The sophomore previously scored 13 points against Georgian Court in the second game of the season (Nov. 16).

Julia Elie and Cherish Bryant both scored 11 points against Franklin Pierce (2-20, 1-12 NE10). Bryant, a freshman, also dished out a season-best seven assists without turning the ball over. Niya Morgen scored in double figures for the 11th consecutive game, chipping in 10 points for Bentley (16-3, 12-1 NE10).

The Falcons' lead was just 13-10 at the end of the first quarter. The advantage was cut down to one point, 15-14, just 90 seconds into the second quarter. From there, Bentley went on a 7-0 run. It started with Kayana Armbrister knocking down a couple of free-throws. Ava Orlando hit a 3-pointer, and Armbrister made a jumper in the paint to give Bentley a 22-14 lead.

By halftime, Bentley had a 36-28 lead. But the Falcons nearly doubled up their first-half points total in the third quarter alone.

Bentley poured in 30 points in the third quarter, shooting 11-for-17 (64.7-percent) from the floor in the 10-minute span.

The Falcons' next game is at American International Wednesday, Feb. 11, at 5:30 p.m.
