Beckett Scores Career-High 31 in 68-62 Loss to Gettysburg

WESTMINSTER, Md. - McDaniel College women's basketball freshman Elaina Beckett scored a career-high 31 points, but Gettysburg rallied for a 68-62 victory Tuesday on Rebecca L. Martin Court.

The Green Terror (2-5, 1-2 CC) led by as many as 20 midway through the second quarter, 33-13, as they held the visitors to just 3-of-23 shooting while forcing eight turnovers.

Beckett scored 21 of her 31 points in the second half, including 19 in the fourth quarter as McDaniel rallied from a nine-point deficit. She scored 19 of the team's 26 points in the quarter while adding five rebounds. She was 8-fo-12 from the floor and 3-of-5 from the free throw line.

Beckett's three-point play with 2:15 remaining tied the game at 58-58, but the Bullets (3-1, 2-0 CC) scored the next six points to go back ahead by two possessions.

A three-pointer by Beckett pulled the Green Terror within two with 21 seconds to play, but Gettysburg sealed the win by going 4-for-4 from the free throw line in the final 17 seconds.

Beckett finished with 31 points, six rebounds, two steals and two blocks. It is her first career 30-point game and second this season with at least 20 as she totaled 26 in a 73-41 win at Bryn Mawr on Nov. 19.

While she didn't score, senior Josey Klingenberg had eight assists, four rebounds and six steals. Senior Mallory Conroy had nine points, four rebounds and four steals as McDaniel scored 20 points off 17 Gettysburg turnovers. Led by Beckett, the team also scored 32 points in the paint.

The Green Terror continue their four-game home stand on Saturday when they host Ursinus. Tip-off is at 1 p.m.
