Bergeron Leads Bowdoin to Senior Day Rout of Williams

BOX SCORE

BRUNSWICK, Maine - Bowdoin's Katie Bergeron tied the school record with six three-pointers, sparking the Polar Bear women's basketball team to a 91-58 Senior Day rout of Williams. The Polar Bears (18-4, 6-1 NESCAC) win their 13th consecutive meeting with the Ephs dating back to 2001. The 33-point margin of victory was also the largest ever for Bowdoin against Williams (8-14, 3-4 NESCAC).

Thanks to red-hot shooting by the Polar Bears in the opening half, Bowdoin put the game out of reach early. Down 4-3 after a pair of Mika Peterman free-throws for Williams, a trio of Bergeron trifectas sparked a 20-0 run for the hosts, giving Bowdoin a 19 point lead just seven minutes into the game. The Polar Bears would extend their first-half lead to as many as 25 points and carried a 47-24 edge into intermission thanks to 18 points off turnovers and 18 second-chance points.

The Polar Bears stretched their lead to as many as 35 points in the second half en route to victory. Bowdoin connected for 11 three-pointers as a team, led by six from Bergeron, who equaled her previous record that she also holds with Julia Loonin '07. Bergeron led all scorers with 22 points on the day while Alexa Kaubris (12), Leah Rubega (11) and Jill Henrikson (10) also saw double figures for the Polar Bears. Maria Noucas had nine assists and three steals for Bowdoin. Williams was led by 20 points from Taylor Shea while Peterman scored 12 in defeat.

In pre-game ceremonies, Bowdoin honored their three seniors; Maria Noucas, Alexa Kaubris and Jill Anelauskas. The trio has led the Polar Bears to a pair of NESCAC titles, three NCAA tournament appearances and an overall record of 93-18 in their career.
