Titans Fall at Northern Kentucky

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky (1-4-26) - Graduate student Nisea Burrell was the only player to reach double figures, scoring 13 points on 4-for-8 shooting and 4-for-5 from the free throw line as Detroit Mercy fell 75-57 at Northern Michigan on Sunday afternoon at Truist Arena.

Sophomore Addisen Mastriano had nine points with four rebounds, followed by sophomore May Anderson with eight points, going 4-for-5 from the charity stripe. Graduate student Jasmine Edwards had six points while grabbing a team-best seven rebounds, while graduate student Aaliyah McQueen also had six points, going 2-for-2 from long range with three blocks, just missing her career-high by one.

Graduate student and NKU transfer Kailee Davis added a season-high five points in her return against her former team. Freshman Naïma Diawara and sophomore Anna Lassan chipped in with four points each.

Turnovers once again proved to be the Achilles Heel for Detroit Mercy (4-10, 2-3 HL) as they had 22, leading to 23 Northern Kentucky (6-11, 3-3 HL) points compared to six points off turnover for the Titans. UDM's offense also struggled in the second and third quarters, scoring a combined 17 points, which the Norse capitalized on with a big run to take a large lead.

UDM jumped out to a 9-5 lead at the media timeout. The Norse went on a 17-9 spurt to close out the frame as the Titans trailed by six points, 22-16.

Anderson came into the game and knocked down a 3-pointer to keep the Titans close at 27-21 by the 4:51 media timeout. However, NKU hit three straight 3-pointers before Lassan got a much-needed layup to end the 9-2 run with UDM trailing by 15 points, 39-24, at the break.

NKU's run continued with a 15-5 spurt to open the third quarter as they outscored the Titans 21-9 to take a commanding 60-33 lead going into the fourth quarter

Davis knocked down a 3-pointer, followed by a three-point play from Burrell, as the Titans continued to battle in the fourth quarter. The offense got going, outscoring NKU 24-15, but it was not enough to overcome the large deficit.

Detroit Mercy returns to Calihan Hall for a #HLWBB battle against Milwaukee on Thursday, Jan 8, at 7 p.m.
