DELHI, N.Y. (December 10, 2021) – The SUNY Delhi women's basketball team and their NAC West guest Northern Vermont Johnson squared off in a tough-fought early going Friday night. The Broncos were behind just 14-10 after a productive opening period, only for the Badgers to overtake the second quarter with a 20-point swing that propelled them to a 74-39 decision. The Broncos continue their NAC West home weekend series Saturday, welcoming SUNY Canton to Floyd L. Maines Arena at 3:00 p.m.

NVU Johnson's scoring trio of Paris Altuahene, Shaydee Gunnell, and Kimora Parker finished in double digits, with Atuahene's 22 points. Gunnell's 19, and Parker's ten.

Madilyne Kupris delivered eight points off the bench with five rebounds, while Justine Lubbers totaled six points and a game-high 13 rebounds. Jahddah Lennon made six points with a dozen boards.

Lubbers and Lennon's rebounding totals led to one positive outcome for the Broncos, staying neck and neck with the Badgers on the glass all evening as the guests took a narrow 50-48 lead in boards. Delhi shot 27.8 percent (15-of-54) to Johnson's 37.3 (28-of-75). The turnovers prove costly, as the Badgers used the Broncos' 33 turnovers to fuel a 26-6 lead in points off turnovers.
