GLASSBORO, NJ -- Rowan ran past Salisbury, 71-54, Saturday afternoon in the home opener for the Profs.

For Salisbury, Ashlynn Burrows and Emma Wivell scored 12 points apiece respectively.

Holt's triple gave the home team a 10-point lead in the latter stages of the first quarter before the Sea Gulls cut it to 22-17. Now tied at 22-22 early in the second, the Profs closed the stanza on a 14-2 run to lead 36-24 at the half.

The lead remained in double figures in the third, but Rowan kept the foot on the pedal. Another scoring run leading into the fourth quarter (14-0) was capped by a bucket from Shayla Johnson for Rowan's largest lead of the day, 66-40.

The team shot 44.8% for the contest (30-of-67) while limiting Salisbury to a 17-of-55 (30.9%) effort. Ayanna Johnson was the top rebounder, snaring a game-high seven while Danielle McCurdy had four of the team's eight blocks.
