SAN MARCOS (12-9-2018) – The Palomar College women’s basketball team played
But deficits of 30-12 at halftime and 20 points midway through the third quarter proved just too big a hill to climb, as Mt. SAC (9-3) held on for a 56-47 victory.
The Comets (9-3) were ice cold shooting for most the game at 15-for-58 from the field, including just 4-for-27 from behind the 3-point arc. Except for Clarissa Taite’s 2-for-4 night from behind the arc, Palomar was an icy 2-for-23 on treys.
Julie Saelee (15 points, 4 rebounds an assist and 3 steals) and Taite (12 points, 2 steals and a rebound) were the only Comets to score in double figures. Lilly Crabtree contributed 8 rebounds and blocked 2 shots.
