7:13- MVN defeats the ninth ranked team in the country by a score of 86-81. Sarah Soroka lead all scorers with 34 points to go along with 9 rebounds. MVN had five players in double figures and were lead by Amanda Himes with 23 and Sierra Fletcher with 18. This is the Wildcats first conference loss. They fall to 19-4(9-1) and play next tomorrow at home against another ranked team Cedarville at 2pm. With this huge win, Mount Vernon Nazerene improves to 15-5(6-3).
7:10- 1.8 remaining. Tara Bailey knocks down a 28 foot 3 point jumper to cut lead to three but too little for the Wildcats it looks like.
7:06- 20.8 remaining. Stoddard drives down the lane and lays it in for two. MVN leads 80-76.
7:03- 40.7 remaining. Daemen down six with the ball. With Stoddard in the game, it gives the Wildcats the ability to down the court to get a quick two.
7:01- 42.7 seconds remaining. Daemen down 78-74. Poorly officiated game to this point. Wildcats will have to foul.
6:56- Full timeout by Daemen only trailing by one. They just grabbed the lead by one but gave it right back with two MVN free throws. MVN has five players in double figures. Soroka leads all scorers with 33. 1:48 remaining in regulation.
6:53- ANOTHER Soroka 3 cuts lead to two!
6:48- Sarah Soroka. Big 3 pointer to cut deficit to 3
6:43- Ellie Allen knocks down a corner three and then connects on a half court shot pass to Soroka to cut lead to four.
6:34- MVN timeout, up 7. Daemen seems to be coming to life going on a 7-0 run to get it to 51-47 but a three pointer by Kelli Pollock silenced the crowd to get the lead back up to seven.
6:31- 5-0 Daemen run has Daemen within 6.
6:24- Daemen still looking sloppy, down 9, 49-40. MVN leading scorer Amanda Himes leaves the game with apparent knee injury.
6:16- Doave Skolen, Daemen coach does not look happy.
6:05- Halftime in Amherst. MVN leads 43-38. Sarah Soroka lead Daemen with 20 points for Daemen to go along with four rebounds. Amanda Hines leads MVN with 14 but they have three others with seven points so the wealth is being shared. MVN controlled the tempo of the first half and after Daemen jumped out to a 21-7 lead, they outscored the Wildcats 36-17. Very unlike Daemen to be outplayed offensively and defensively. Look for more energy out of Daemen come second half.
6:00- Mount Vernon has completely dominated the last 10 minutes and lead by three at 39-36.
5:55- Alexis Harkins of MVN completes three point play off of steal of bad pass by Soroka. Wildcats look out of sync and disorganized.

5:34- Sloppy ball movement, a Laguerre offensive foul, and poor rebounding have lead to a 4-2 deficit thus far.
5:24- Four minutes until game time. Cougars come in at 14-5 and look like a strong team. Wildcats 9-0 in conference play looking to make it 10-0.
