Garden City, NY | The Lady Panthers fell to the Lions by a final score of 53-70 for their 5th consecutive loss of the season. Despite the final outcome, BMCC matched up well against one of the toughest teams in the region. At the end of the first half, the Lady Panthers would trail by just 5 points. After shooting over 50% in the first half, the Panthers offense slowed down in the second half as the team could not buy a basket.

Freshman Malaysia Morton recorded 11 points for her second double-digit scoring output of the season.
