Notebook:

Haverford senior Elizabeth Lynch surpassed the 1,000 point plateau as the Fords defeated the Franklin and Marshall Diplomats at the Gooding '84 Arena on Thursday night. Lynch finished with 10 points and now has 1,002 in her career. She is one of only six players in program history to reach the mark and fourth under head coach Bobbi Morgan.

Muhlenberg senior Leanna Tallamy averaged 29.5 points and 8.5 rebounds in a 1-1 week for the Mules. She scored 35 points, a school record for a Centennial Conference game and the most by a Muhlenberg player in 23 years, in a 79-67 win against Dickinson.  She also netted a game-high 24 in a loss at McDaniel.
