Hahn led the way with 18 points on 6-for-9 shooting from 3-point range. Gedaka (13 points) was a rebound shy of a double-double, while Tucker added 11 points for the Wildcats (6-2).

AUBURN 81, SAINT JOSEPH’S 70 >> The Hawks battled back from a 16-point, first-half deficit to make it a one-point game in the fourth quarter. Alas, the Hawks (3-6) couldn’t complete the comeback.

Roig finished with 11 points and five rebounds. Katie Mayock (Conestoga) added eight points, nine rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block for the Hawks.
