Rams suffer first loss of season at Penn after giving up late lead

The Rams let one get away on the road Tuesday night lead.

The Colorado State women’s basketball team (3-1) came up short against the University of Pennsylvania (4-1) by a score of 49-48 at the Palestra despite leading for almost the entire contest. Last season’s Ivy League Rookie of the Year Michelle Nwokedi was too much for the Rams to handle, finishing with 25 points, eight rebounds, three assists and four blocks.

The Rams shot the ball just 28.6 percent from the field in the first quarter but were up 17-15 at the end of the period.
