DUDLEY, MASS—The Nichols College women’s basketball team extended its program record winning streak to 16 games with a 55-39 victory over visiting Curry College in a The Commonwealth Coast Conference matchup Saturday afternoon. Jessica Nelson (North Providence, R.I.) led the way for the Bison with 11 points and six rebounds, helping the team stay undefeated in conference play with a 7-0 mark.
The first eight minutes of the game were close, with Curry only trailing by four, until Nichols went on a 26-8 run, capped off by a layup from first-year forward Chelsea Shaughnessy (Halifax, Mass.). That stretch put the Bison ahead by 22, leading 38-16 at the half.
Curry (6-13, 2-5 TCCC) fought back early in the second half, opening the period with a 12-4 run of their own to cut the deficit to 14 with 13 minutes to play. That was as close as Curry would get though, as Nichols regrouped and held the Colonels to only 11 points for the rest of the game, winning it, 55-39.
Sophomore guard Ashley Robidoux (Milford, Mass.), added nine points for the Bison Sophomore Danyel Cousins (Brunswick, Maine) was the high scorer for Curry with nine points and seven boards.
