PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – The Caldwell College women's basketball team lost to fifth-ranked Holy Family University, 66-56 in the championship game of the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Tournament, held at the University of the Sciences' Morgan Arena Saturday afternoon. The Cougars end their season at 19-12, while the Tigers (27-2) receive the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Division II East Regional next week.

With the score tied at 22-22 with 4:36 left in the first half, Caldwell scored the next 10 points, including four from sophomore forward Emily Caswell (Wakefield, RI/Prout School), to lead 32-22 with 2:24 left. The run helped the Cougars take a 36-27 advantage into halftime. Freshman guard Nicole Angelo (Mount Laurel, NJ/Camden Catholic) made three three-pointers en route to 15 points in the first period.

Holy Family quickly got back into the game by scoring the first eight points of the second half to make the score 36-35 with 17 minutes remaining. Caswell halted the run with a three-pointer, which sparked a 9-4 run that gave the Cougars a 45-39 lead with 12:55 on the clock. Caldwell still held the upper hand, 53-50 with six minutes to play when the Tigers reeled off a 12-1 run that included six points from CACC Player of the Year Erin Mann to lead 62-54 with 1:27 left.
