Kania Day (East Stroudsburg, PA/East Stroudsburg South) led the Spartans with 21 points and 8 rebounds, while Shanaiya Ellis (Allentown, PA/William Allen) added 14 points off the bench. 

"I'm really proud of how the ladies were able to regroup after being off for a month," remarked Head Coach Terrence Bomar, "hopefully this will jump start us for a playoff push."
