George Fox, ranked No. 9 in the nation in the latest NCAA Division III national poll, improved to 8-0, the second-best start to a season in team history. Last year's Bruins opened the season 9-0 en route to a 23-3 record. Evergreen State dropped its second in a row to fall to 1-10. Both teams were slow getting under way as neither scored for over three minutes, but Darby Cave's short jumper broke the ice and gave George Fox a 2-0 lead at the 16:38 mark. The Bruins proceeded to score 15 of the game's first 17 points in the next three minutes, with Becky Thompson hitting a lay-up and a pair of three-pointers in the outburst. Thompson finished with 13 points in the half as the Bruins stretched their lead to 44-21 at the break. When the second half began, George Fox held the Geoducks scoreless for over seven minutes while going on a 23-0 run, and held them without a field goal until Dodie McCallum hit a short jumper in the lane with 6:19 to play. By then the Bruins held a 50-point lead at 78-28. Evergreen State wound up making only 4-26 from the field in the second half. The final margin was George Fox's biggest lead of the game. Thompson led all scorers with 17 points and all rebounders with 9, picking up 5 steals and throwing in 4 assists for good measure. Mandy Dunham scored 11 and Melissa Alexander 10 off the bench, career highs for both, while Cave added 11. Liz Clark added 9 points and a career-high 6 assists. George Fox won the rebounding battle 58-33, and made 31-39 from the free throw line, one short of the team record of 32 made. Kristin Zompetti scored 14 in a reserve role as the only Geoduck in double figures, and Chandra Rathke was Evergreen's top rebounder with 6. The Geoducks shot only .211 (12-57) from the field in the game. The Bruins are off next week for exams, but return to action Monday, Dec. 17, in the AmeriSport Coconut Coast Classic in Hilo, Hawaii. George Fox will face Marian College (Wise.) at 12:00 noon Pacific time, then take on St. Mary's College (Ind.) on Tuesday, also at 12:00 noon. The Geoducks head home Monday (Dec. 10) to take on Seattle University at 7:00p.m. OFFICIAL BASKETBALL BOX SCORE -- G A M E T 0 T A L S Evergreen State vs George Fox 12/08/01 7:30 pm at Newberg, OR VISITORS: Evergreen State 1-10 TOT-FG 3-PT REBOUNDS No.
