MARSHFIELD – Freshman Paige Albrecht continued her torrid start to the season, scoring 31 points to lead the University of Wisconsin-Marshfield/Wood County women’s basketball team to a 73-50 win over UW-Richland Center on Monday at Marauder Gym.
Ashley Pongratz added 15 points and Marissa Draxler scored 10 points, grabbed 11 rebounds and dished out six assists for the Marauders, who improve to 2-4 overall and 2-2 in the Wisconsin Collegiate Conference.
“This was a nice win for us coming off our loss to Waukesha on Saturday,” Marshfield coach Lori Galetka said. “We made some adjustments on both ends of the floor at half and they worked out well for us.
“We’re also starting to rebound better. We beat them in total rebounds tonight, but came up short on the offensive end.”
The Marauders will host UW-Fond du Lac at 5 p.m. Dec. 1.
