SEWELL, NJ - Another slow start spelled doom for the Lady Spartans as they fell behind 30-15 at the half and ended up losing 51-39 at Gloucester County College on Saturday.

"I can't explain it," remarked Head Coach Art Wolfe, "we have really struggled the last few games to get started ... then in the second half we decide to start playing basketball.  We obviously need to find a way to get back on track as we hit the home stretch of the season."

Krista Ruhle scored 12 points and Jennifer Heitzman added 9 rebounds to lead the Spartan attack.

NCC, 8-13 overall and 7-8 in Region XIX, returns to action on Tuesday night when they host the Skylanders of Sussex County Community College at 5:00pm.
