BLOOMFIELD, NJ – The Bears women's basketball team dropped their second consecutive game in a, 59-41 non-conference setback Monday evening against the University of New Haven. The regional battle at the Den left Bloomfield still searching for their first victory of the season over a non-Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) opponent.
 
The visiting Chargers improved their record to 11-13 overall while the home team fell to 13-11 with the regular season drawing closer to a conclusion.
 
Both teams struggled offensively from the field for the game as New Haven converted 38.2 percent of their shots to the Bears 30.6 percent. Bloomfield made just one 3-pointer during the regional contest as they trailed for most of the match.
 
Bloomfield saw only two players reach double-figures with junior classmates, Deja McKenzie (Baltimore, MD) and Ilysia Lewis (Baltimore, MD) each shooting 4-of-10 from the floor for 12 points apiece. Lewis also snagged a team-high, seven rebounds.
 
The Bears will look for that elusive first non-conference victory when they play their final regional opponent outside of the CACC on Wednesday, February 14^th. The Valentine's Day showdown on the road will feature Bloomfield taking on the Lions of Lincoln University (Pa.) at 6:00 pm. The Bears will return home on Saturday to host Senior Day against Georgian Court University.
