CLEMSON, S.C. (November 28, 2021) – A trio of Mount St. Mary's bench players combined for 34 points during women's basketball contest with Clemson. But the undermanned Mountaineers were levied an early torrent from the Tigers, who took the game with an 83-59 final.  
 
Without the services of Kendall Bresee, who was sidelined with an illness, the Mount had to find another leading scorer. Freshman Jasmine Lindsay-Huskey stepped up to fill that role, supplying a career-high 17 points. Sophomore Jada Lee tied her career high with 10, and Tess Borgosz came off the bench to score seven, a high mark for her as a Mountaineer. Jessica Tomasetti secured her first start as a collegiate athlete and ended up leading the starting five by scoring eight points.
 
Led by Lindsay-Huskey with five, the Mount tallied 12 triples at a rate of 38.7 percent. The team did better from beyond-the-arc than from the floor overall.
 
Clemson also received a significant impact from their bench which scored 43 of the team's total. Freshman Eno Inyang shot 7-for-12 and added six points at the charity stripe to lead all scorers with 20. Her nine rebounds left her one shy of a double-double.
 
The Tigers exploded out of the gate, building a 30-7 lead by quarter's end. That point total was the most for the home side since timelines in the women's game divided into quarters a few years ago.
 
But the Mount retaliated and battled to win the second and fourth quarters. Lindsay-Huskey scored 11 of her 17 points before halftime as the visitors scored 24 points to register 31 by the break. A 13-0 run to complete the game helped Mount St. Mary's lead the final period, 15-13. Isabella Hunt added four points and five rebounds to the effort.  
 
The defeat extends the team's losing streak to four games, longest since January 2018.
 
Mount St. Mary's continues their road trip Saturday (Dec. 4) at Loyola. Tip-off is at 5 p.m. in Baltimore.
