The Spartans jumped out to a 47-18 lead at halftime and cruised to the 44 point victory.  Northampton dominated the boards, out-rebounding Harrisburg 53-33 and they held the Hawks to 29% shooting from the field (19/66).

"We are slowly improving," stated Head Coach Alyssa Bonenberger, "we still have a long way to go, but I am starting to see small improvements each game. We need to take each game one at a time and try to get ourselves back to .500 by break."  When asked about Moser's performance, Bonenberger remarked, "Dom was simply unstoppable tonight ... 55 points and 22 rebounds in a game is unbelievable."

Laura Sweger (Elizabethville, Pa./Upper Dauphin ) added 13 points and 9 rebounds and Krista Cappetta (Nazareth, Pa/Nazareth) had 10 points for the Spartans, who shot 48% from the field (36/75). 

The victory moves Northampton to 4-5 overall, and they remain 2-1 in Region XIX and 2-0 in conference play. 

Harrisburg falls to 0-4. 

The Spartans are back in action on Thursday when they host NJCAA Division II County College of Morris.  The women's game will tip at 8:00pm.
