HOLLAND, Mich. - Today the Calvin women's basketball team competed in the Calvin/Hope Classic hosted by Hope College where it fell to DePauw University 55-41. After tonight the Knights dropped to an overall record of 1-2 on the young season.
 
The first quarter was a low scoring affair for both squads as the Tigers claimed a slim 13-9 lead after the first ten minutes of play. Senior RyAnn Rohrer (Ludington, Mich./Ludington) led the way for Calvin with four points while fellow senior Katelyn LaRue (Grand Rapids, Mich./Grand Rapids Christian) and junior Jamie Custer (Galena, Ohio/Worthington Christian) each recorded a steal.
 
DePauw built on their lead in the second quarter as they outscored the Knights 12-8 and headed into halftime with the 25-17 advantage. After posting a 26.7 shooting percentage in the first half Calvin looked to turn things around in the third quarter as they racked up twelve points, their highest scoring quarter of the evening. However, unfortunately for the Knights, DePauw also had an exceptional third quarter and extended their lead to 44-29. 
 
In the fourth quarter the Knights continued to try and work their way back into the game but in the end the deficit proved to be too much and they fell to DePauw 55-41. Rohrer finished with a team high 14 points and a shooting percentage of 46.2 while LaRue chipped in seven points and three rebounds. Senior Hannah Sall (Grand Rapids, Mich./Grand Rapids Christian) recorded a team high six rebounds while senior Chloe Wiegers (Lake Orion, Mich./Lake Orion) led the team in assists with three.
