Defense does job for Mids against Colgate

The Navy women's basketball team held Colgate to no more than 10 points in each of the first three quarters on the way to the Mids posting a 51-41 victory over the Raiders Saturday afternoon at Alumni Hall.

After the Raiders (3-11, 1-3 Patriot League) jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead, the Mids (8-7, 2-2) scored the next eight points to take a lead they would not relinquish. Colgate scored the next basket to make it a one-point game, but Navy ran off the ensuing six points to take a 14-8 lead after the first quarter.
