Bronx, N.Y. – Despite a 13-points from guard Nelson Asamoah, the Lehman College women's basketball team fell for the third consecutive time at home as it lost a 72-42 non-conference encounter to DeSales University, at The APEX Main Gym, on Tuesday evening. The Lightning fell to a 6-6 overall record, while the Bulldogs improved to a 6-4 mark.

After Lehman trailed by just three points at the end of the first quarter, DeSales went on a 25 to 15 run in the second period to increase its lead to 13 points (38-25) at the intermission and never looked back.

Guards Heaven Figueroa and Emily Kennedy added seven points each for the Lightning, while teammate Isabela Araujo notched six points.

Lehman will look to snap its three-game losing streak when it travels to Brooklyn, for CUNYAC action, against Medgar Evers College, on January 7th at 5 pm ET.
