The second half was tight after the Huskies reduced a nine-point halftime hole to one, 46-45, with a 12-4 run over the first 4:17. The lead was no more than five by either team until Drexel’s decisive 7-0 run in the final minutes.
NU took an early 9-2 lead as Drexel came out and made one of its first five shots and turned the ball over seven times in its first 12 possessions. With NU’s top scorer Melissa Kowalski cold (1-9 in the first half) and Lawrence (3-9) missing some short inside shots, Drexel stormed back with a 17-9 run to take its first lead of the night, 19-18, with 8:24 to go before halftime. The teams traded baskets for the next few minutes before the Dragons went on a10-0 run to turn a 25-24 deficit into a 34-25 edge with 2:58 left. Drexel maintained the nine-point lead at halftime, up 42-33.
Drexel, 81-78 winners over the Huskies in Philadelphia on Dec. 21, completed a regular season sweep of NU for just the second time since joining America East in the 1991-92 season. The Dragons’ only other sweep came in the 1996-97 campaign.
