CALDWELL, N.J. --  Star sophomore point guard Jah'Nel Lewis (Jersey City, N.J.) scored 22 points as Women's Basketball (2-3) lost its second game in a row in a 74-63 match to the Mercy College Mavericks (2-3) at the Newman Center.

Sophomore guard Brooke Corbett (Staten Island, N.Y.) got in double figures for the first time this season, scoring 11 points with four steals and seven rebounds.

Junior guard/forward Lucy Coogan (Kilkenny, Ireland) scored 10 points and did not commit a turnover.
