GARDEN CITY, N.Y. – Seeing overtime action for a second-straight contest, the Pace University women's basketball team was defeated at 10^th-ranked Adelphi on Wednesday night by a score of 63-59. The loss puts the Setters at 18-8 overall this season (11-6, NE10), while the Panthers move to 24-2.

Inside the Numbers
Pace was led by 19 points off the bench from Lauren Schetter (Beacon, N.Y./Beacon High School). The junior forward put together an efficient 8-for-11 night, while also tallying a team-high eight rebounds.

Senior Jackie DelliSanti (Commack, N.Y./Commack) also grabbed eight boards, to go along with 14 points and a team-high three steals. DelliSanti continues to lead the Setters in scoring this season, while ranking fourth in the NE10 in points per game (17.4).

How it Happened
Adelphi scored the final five points of regulation to force overtime, which included a three-pointer off the hands of Fallyn Stephens with 36 seconds left. The Setters had led for the entirety of the fourth quarter prior to that point.

The Panthers opened the scoring in the extra period with a pair of free throws before Schetter answered with a bucket on the other end.

After Adelphi went back up four, an old-fashioned three-point play from DelliSanti cut the edge to just one point with 15 seconds on the clock.

Following two more free throws for the home team, Pace's three-point attempt to tie the game with about 10 seconds left fell off the mark.
