(Norristown, Pa. / Norristown) led all scorers with a game-high 18 points on 8-of-10 shooting. Kelsey Yori (Folsom, Pa. / Ridley) added 16 with her hot hand as the junior connected on four three pointers and freshman Charlotte Kucowski (Philadelphia, Pa. / St. Hubert's) rounded out the scoring, chipping in 12 points off of the bench.

The Griffins (10-10, 7-4 CSAC) came out early, taking a commanding 13-point lead (17-4) on a Jackie Crowley (Philadelphia, Pa. / Neumann-Goretti) layup.  GM would continue to stretch their lead when Kucowski connected on a layup to put Gwynedd up 31-10 with 6:30 remaining in the half.  Yori would give GM their largest lead of the half when she connected on a long ball with under ten seconds remaining in the stanza to give the Griffins a 42-20 lead heading into the break.

C.J. Hilliard (Bethlehem, Pa. / Liberty) would keep things rolling in the second half as the sophomore connected on a three ball to put Gwynedd up 60-30 with just over 14 minutes remaining in regulation. 

The Griffins shot 50.0% (33-of-66) from the floor and connected on a season-high 14 three pointers to cruise to the victory.

Gwynedd dished out a season-high 28 assists as a team. Jordan Dominic (Sellersville, Pa. / Pennridge) led GM with a team-high eight while adding nine points on 3-of-4 shooting from beyond the arc. The distribution also allowed eleven different Griffins to reach the scoring column.

GM also won the battle of the boards out-rebounding Centenary, 40-28.  Senior Lauren Smith (Philadelphia, Pa. / Archbishop Ryan) led the Griffins with a team high five. 

Klarissa Perry led the Cyclones (7-12, 5-5 CSAC) with a team-high 14 points and Mallory George chipped in 12. 

The Griffins return back to action Wednesday night when they host defending conference champion Cabrini.  Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. here at the Griffin Complex.
