GROVE CITY, Pa.--The Westminster College women's basketball team suffered a 71-51 Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) loss at rival Grove City College Saturday afternoon. 

Senior Natalie Murrio (Pittsburgh, Pa. | Brentwood) paced Westminster (11-8, 7-7 PAC) with a game-high 17 points and added nine rebounds. Sophomore Mackenzie Powell (Harrison City, Pa. | Penn-Trafford) had eight points and three boards while junior Katie Fitzpatrick (Cumberland Center, Maine | Greely) finished with a season-high 14 rebounds. 

Kat Goetz led four Grove City (11-8, 11-3 PAC) players in double figures with 15 points.

Leading 19-17 after the first quarter, Westminster's second quarter lead grew to as many as nine (26-17) before Megan Kallock's three-pointer with just over one minute remaining in the half gave Grove City a 35-34 advantage. Murrio put the Titans up by one (36-35) with 52 seconds to play in the second with a pair of made free throws, but Kallock hit two free throws with just over half a minute to go that helped Grove City carry a 37-36 lead into the break. 

Grove City outscored Westminster 12-8 in the third and went into the fourth quarter up five, 49-44.

The Wolverines went 9-of-18 from the floor over the final 10 minutes. The Titans hit 2-of-10 field goal attempts in the fourth quarter. 

Westminster shot 28.8 percent (15-52) from the field. Grove City went 27-of-71 (38.0%). The Titans held a 52-42 edge on the glass. Grove City turned 23 Westminster turnovers into 23 points.
