In all, five players finished in double figures in scoring for BSU as senior center Destiny Fitzgerald was among the group with 12 points. Freshman center Jannise Avelino stepped up by scoring nine of her 17 points in the third quarter and along with freshman forward Kylie Grassi (13 points) of Plymouth, who shook off early foul trouble, they sparked a game-altering 17-4 run that opened up a commanding 69-46 advantage with 3:28 left in the third quarter.īridgewater State University head coach Bridgett Casey and her players celebrate during a game against Westfield State University on Saturday, Feb.

The hot shooting from Dziadyk wasn’t the only thing propelling BSU. “Once you hit your first couple, the rest just start falling.” “She kept at it and she put in some extra work after practice to get some shots up, so I think that obviously helped,” said BSU coach Bridgett Casey of Dziadyk.
