Bennett hits milestone; Lady Jackets win

CANTON, Ohio - Baylee Bennett surpassed 1,000 career points for her Cedarville career and matched the school-record for three-point accuracy in a game to lead the Lady Jackets to a 79-61 G-MAC victory at Malone.

Bennett went five-for-five from deep and scored 17 points for CU, 10-2 overall and 6-0 G-MAC.

She's scored 1,002 points during her three-year Lady Jacket career as the 26th member of the 1,000 Point Club.

Bennett's three-ball midway through the second quarter gave Cedarville the lead for good. The visitors built the advantage to 36-27 by halftime and to as much as 18 in the fourth quarter.

Ashlyn Huffman tallied 14 points and handed out a career-high nine assists. Abby Wolford chipped in 13 points and five rebounds.

The Lady Jackets controlled the boards, 39-24, with the +15 rebounding margin a season-high.

Stinger Notes:
  • Bennett now shares the CU record for single-game three-point percentage (5-for-5) with Head Coach Kari Hoffman, who also did it against Malone on Feb. 19, 2005.
  • Huffman's previous career-high for assists was eight set last year vs. Alderson Broaddus.
  • Wolford scored in double figures for the fifth time in the last six contests.
  • The Lady Jackets have shot 50 percent from the field overall eight times this year and outside the three-point line four times.
  • It's the only regular season meeting between the longtime rivals with Cedarville leading the all-time series, 35-13.
  • The Jackets have three games remaining on their seven-game road swing.
