In the first game, Nicole Coombes led the way with 16 points and five rebounds. Kaitlin Donahoe (13 points, nine assists, seven boards), Amy Hackett (13 points), Colleen Sweeney (13 points) and Alex Barry (10 points, 10 rebounds) also finished in double figures.

The Polar Bears (24-5) face Babson Friday at 5 p.m. in Amherst in the Sweet 16. Amherst and Muhlenberg play in the other game immediately afterwards and the winners square off Saturday at 6 p.m., with a berth in the Division III Final Four at stake.
