GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Senior Elaina Beckett hit a career-high five three-pointers en route to a game-high 25 points to lead the McDaniel College women's basketball team in a 60-52 road loss to Gettysburg on Wednesday.
 
Beckett surpassed Kathi Snyder '99 to move up to third on the program's all-time scoring list. She has scored 1,398 career points to tie her with Lindsey Nichols '16 for third place, accomplishing the feat in 19 fewer games. She is now 179 points behind second-place holder Cindy Boyer '87.
 
The Green Terror (18-6, 7-6) currently stand in fifth place in the Centennial Conference standings, sitting a half-game above Franklin & Marshall and Washington College.

The Green Terror started strong in the first quarter, opening the game on a 14-5 run until three consecutive baskets from the Bullets (18-6, 11-2) cut the visiting lead to three at the end of one. 
 
Gettysburg tied the game at 14-14 to begin the second quarter but sophomore Lauren Cavoli later broke the tie with a three-pointer at the 6:46 mark. The McDaniel lead increased to five following a pair of Beckett free throws, but the Bullets rallied to take a 20-19 lead with 3:35 remaining in the half. A Beckett three-pointer put the visitors ahead by four with 2:09 to go but Gettysburg again answered, scoring the final five points of the half to take a 27-26 lead into the break.
 
The Bullets opened the third quarter on a 6-0 run to increase their lead to seven, but the Green Terror battled back to tie the game at 39-39 following a Cavoli layup with 1:22 to play. A Bullet basket with 41 seconds in the quarter broke the tie heading into the final quarter.
 
A Cavoli jump shot again tied the contest at 45-45 with 4:13 left in regulation but the Bullets answered with five straight points. The Gettysburg lead grew to nine in the final minutes as the Bullets connected on all eight of their free throws down the stretch.
 
Beckett tied for the game-high with 25 points, connecting on 5-of-11 three-pointers and totaling six rebounds and four steals. Junior Raegan Lenz also finished in double figures with 13 points and tied her career-high with seven blocks. Cavoli added nine points and five assists.
