Camilleri's Double-Double Gives Cougars First Win

Bridgewater, Mass. - Behind a double-double from senior Jillian Camilleri (Lancaster, Mass.), Clark University picked up its first win of the season with a 66-51 decision over Eastern Nazarene in the consolation game of the D'Angelo Tip Off Classic hosted by Bridgewater State College.

Camilleri finished with a game-high 21 points and 10 rebounds for her 16th career double-double and was named to the all-tournament team. The Cougars led for a majority of game but ended all hopes of a Lion victory with a 17-3 burst late in the second half.

Clark shot 40 percent from the floor and held Eastern Nazarene to just 28 percent, including a frigid 7-for-39 in the second half. While Camilleri was the only Cougar in double figures, the Scarlet and White got a strong performance from freshman Kelsey Giedymin (Shrewsbury, Mass.) who just missed her first career double-double with nine points and a career-high 10 rebounds.

Alexis Molloy (11 points, 15 rebounds) was the Lions' top performer despite shooting just 3-for-11 and committing eight turnovers.

Clark (1-2) returns to action on Tuesday when they travel to face perennial MASCAC power Salem State.
