Jovana Nogic led all scorers with 17 points and set the program's all-time record for three-pointers.
LOWELL, MASS.– The Providence College women's basketball team defeated UMass Lowell, 71-47, on Dec. 8 in Lowell, Mass. The Friars improved to 5-3 overall with the victory, while UML dipped to 3-7 on the year. Four Friars finished in double-figures led by senior guard Jovana Nogic (Belgrade, Serbia), who netted 17 points and also set the program record for career three-point field goals.
After going scoreless in the first half of play, Nogic opened the third quarter with a three-point bucket and hit 5-6 attempts from beyond the arc in the stanza. Her second three of the game came with 7:51 remaining in the third, marking the 253rdof her career, to set the record. She surpassed Julie Wheeler '98, who converted 252 three-point buckets during her career at Providence.
The flurry of hot shooting from Nogic fueled a 20-4 run by the Friars, to give Providence a 51-30 lead with 4:08 remaining in the third. The Friars maintained control the rest of the way, growing their lead to as many as 26 with 1:19 remaining in the game (69-43).
Senior Maddie Jolin (Rehoboth, Mass.) and Chanell Williams (Bronx, N.Y.) each contributed 12 points in the victory. Jolin added three steals and a team-best seven rebounds. Williams dished a game-high five assists.
Freshman forward Mary Baskerville (Enfield, Conn.) reached double-digits for the third-straight game with 10 points and added four rebounds and a game-high four steals. Sophomore Olivia Orlando (Winthrop, Mass.) put together another steady game with six points, six rebounds and a career-high four assists.
The Friars finished the game 49.1-percent from the field (27-55), and hit a season-high 11 three-pointers (11-24) at a 45.8-percent clip.
Providence started the game 1-6 from the field, but settled in to hit nine of its final 15 shots of the first half to take a 31-26 lead at halftime. Jolin led the Friars with 12 points, including nine in the first quarter.
The Friars shot 52.4-percent (11-21) overall, including 4-9 from three-point territory. Freshman Kaela Webb (Pontiac, Mich.), who entered the game ranked second in the BIG EAST in three-point percentage, hit 2-2 from beyond the arc in just over six minutes of action in the first half.
