NORTH BAY, Ont. - Competing in their second exhibition game of this North Bay road trip, the Durham College women's basketball team fell 62-58 to the Nipissing Lakers on Saturday afternoon.

"Despite the final score I was very impressed with our team defence and we are trending in the right direction in terms of trying to peak for that home opener on October 18."

A roster which features eight new Durham Lords, it was first-year forward Kendra Oliver (Ajax, Ont.) leading the charge on the day with a double-double performance of 24 points and 13 rebounds. Fellow new Lord Andrea Zulich (Sudbury, Ont.) continued her impressive preseason scoring numbers, chipping in 14..
