Shippensburg 55, Greencastle-Antrim 47: The Greyhounds’ prowess at the free throw line and a slow start by the Blue Devils equaled a Mid Penn Colonial defeat on Monday night on the road.

Shippensburg (3-5, 2-3 MPC) went to the line 23 times in the fourth quarter alone and sank 17 of the shots. For the game, it hit 21 of 30.

Greencastle (3-6, 1-4 MPC) could not find the range early, although it finished with nine 3-pointers. But it was only 4-for-8 at the foul line.

“Facing a 2-3 zone all evening, we could not overcome a slow start in the first quarter,” G-A coach Scott McKeever said.

“We shot 9-for-37 from 3-point range, which kept us in it, but was never enough to get over the hump and seize the lead.”

Kiersten Swain led Greencastle with 14 points, and Callie Izer and Liv Carey each totaled 11. Izer also had 8

rebounds, 4 assists and 5 steals, Carey had 5 assists and Sophie Fries hauled down 9 boards.
