January 4, 2006 GETTYSBURG, PA. -- Behind 20 points off the bench from from sophomore Karen Tierney (Philadelphia, Pa./Kennedy-Kenrick), Gwynedd-Mercy defeated Gettysburg, 88-82, to win the 2006 Days Inn Tournament Tuesday afternoon. Tierney was 7-of-10 from the floor and dished out a game-high seven assists. Junior Jackie Dougherty (Roslyn, Pa./Abington), the Tournament MVP, led all scorers with 21 points while freshman Kristy Cramp (Pennington, N.J./Hopewell Valley) poured in 17 respectively. The Griffins (8-2) led 21-8 at the halfway mark of the first stanza and held a 35-22 edge with just under five minutes left before the Bullets whittled down the deficit thanks to a 14-5 run to close the period. GMC led 40-36 at the break. Gettysburg (6-6) would take its first lead of the game early in the second half, but the Griffins kept it close, never trailing by more than four points. The Griffins took the lead for good on Tierney's fourth and final three-pointer of the game with 4:35 left, giving GMC a 68-66 advantage. Cramp sank five of the team's season-high 15 treys while Dougherty and junior Rebecca Frederick (North Cape May, N.J./Lower Cape May) each pulled down five rebounds apiece.
