First half runs lead Bellarmine past Rockhurst

The Rockhurst Hawks could not overcome a slow start, falling to Bellarmine, 77-66, Saturday at Mason-Halpin Field House.

The Knights opened the game on a 12-2 run. The Hawks would pull back within one early in the second quarter, but a 12-0 Bellarmine run pushed the lead to 32-19.

The Knights would extend the lead to 17 early in the third quarter, but that's when Madeline Ronshausen went to work. The senior leader finished with 18 points, 16 coming in the second half as she willed the Hawks back within six at 63-57. One final Bellarmine run put the Hawks away, however, as the visitors hung on for an 11-point win.

Paige Pendley finished with 13 points as her and fellow freshman Molly Hummel (10 points) helped the Hawks back into the game, but Bellarmine had too much fire power behind Tasia Jeffries' 24 points.

The Hawks (9-13, 3-11 GLVC) host top-ranked Drury on Thursday (5:30 p.m.).
