Weston, Mass. - Regis senior guard Jessica Page (Quincy, Mass.)
registered a first-half double-double and led the Pride (6-2) to a
78-40 victory over the Rams of Framingham State College (3-3) in
the opening game of the Park Lodge Invitational Women's Tournament
hosted by Regis.
In the first half, Page went 6-for-12 from the field (2-for-5 from
three-point range), scored 15 points and 10 rebounds. As a

turnovers.
The Rams improved to just-under 38 percent shooting in the
second-half, but Regis shot the lights out from long range, going
7-for-14 from behind the arc. Sophomore guard Meghan Tobin
(Quincy, Mass.) made all three attempted three-pointers and
finished perfect shooting, adding a couple of free-throws.
Page finished with a tremendous score line; 20 points, 13 rebounds,
five assists, and four steals. Tobin, junior forward Brittany
White (Dorchester, Mass.), and sophomore point guard Stephanie
Crawford (Rockland, Mass.) contributed 11 points each for
