Hilliard's 38 highlights big win for MCC
BUFFALO - After a grueling first month of the season, a little time off was just what the MCC women's basketball team needed.
The Tribunes opened up Western New York Athletic Conference play in dominating fashion Tuesday, defeating host Erie CC 120-32. The game was the team's first since a loss to No. 1 Gulf Coast CC on Dec. 1.
Brittany Hilliard (Washington, D.C./Theodore Roosevelt) scored a career-high 38 points, grabbed eight rebounds, dished out seven assists, and had five steals to pace MCC. Charmonique Watt (Brooklyn, NY/Lincoln) also had a career-high with 26 and added six steals.
The duo hit five 3-pointers apiece as MCC shot 62 percent on the night.
Kristina Rosario (Atlantic City, NJ/Absegami) scored 15 points and pulled down a career-high 17 rebounds. The sophomore also blocked six shots. Jimerea Lee (Philadelphia, PA/Neumann-Goretti) chipped in with 10 points, five rebounds, and five assists.
The Tribunes improved to 5-6 on the season and 1-0 in the WNYAC.
