Worcester, MA- The Lancers Women's Basketball team faced a tough task this afternoon, as they ventured to Bridgewater State to take on the first-place Bears.

Bridgewater State lived up to their reputation, surging to a 27-14 lead in the first quarter, and keeping stride in the second as they led 43-24 at the half.
