Syracuse women’s basketball beats Colgate, 79-57

After a dismal trip to the Bahamas, where they lost all three games they played in the Battle 4 Atlantis, the Syracuse Orange women’s basketball returned to the win column with a 79-57 blowout of the Colgate Raiders in the Carrier Dome on Sunday.

Against a weaker opponent, Orange head coach Vonn Read went deeper into the bench than last weekend, playing eight different players for 15 minutes or longer.

Chrislyn Carr led a balanced attack for Syracuse, finishing with 20 points on nine-of-15 shooting from the field. Naje Murray added 17, hitting three-of-eight from behind the arc, and Teisha Hyman bounced back from a disappointing Battle 4 Atlantis with 16 points, making seven of her twelve shots.
