Sussex Women Triumph Again; Hilbert Breaks 3-pt Record

The Sussex Women's basketball team triumphed over Luzerne County in their 12th win of the season on Thursday, January 9th. The women, coming off an incredible win over the 2015-16 league champions at Middlesex, were looking very good.

Brielle Hilbert had an exceptional game, scoring 39 points - 15 of them in the first quarter. Shooting 48% from the 3, Brielle's eleven 3-pointers in the game allowed her to break the women's previous 3-point record; she sits just shy of 150 total 3s in her career and is on her way to becoming the first woman in SCCC history to score one thousand points. She is currently ranked number one in the NJCAA DIII in made 3s, number 2 in total points, and 4th in points per game (26.4).

Keeley McGregor chipped in significantly, totaling 16 points and 7 assists. Hannah Delbury added 8 and Brenley Knakkagaard 7. With Bryttany Wagner's strong defensive effort of 14 rebounds, the Skylanders beat Luzerne 73-41. The Women are on a 3 game winning streak and look to continue it in a big face off this Saturday vs. the number one seed Camden at 1 pm.

Let's go Skylanders!
