WASHINGTON, DC – Freshman forward Tatyana Calhoun led the Firebirds down the stretch as the University of the District of Columbia women's basketball team survived a second half scare at Molloy to snap a five-game losing streak with a 64-59 East Coast Conference victory Saturday afternoon.

With the win, District of Columbia completed the season sweep of the Lions and improved to 9-18 overall and 4-13 in league play. Molloy had its two-game win streak snapped as the Lions fell to 9-15 overall and 5-11 in the ECC.

Calhoun (Environmental Science – Disputanta, VA/Sussex Central HS) led all scorers with a season-high 19 points, which included a perfect 7-of-7 from the free-throw line. She also collected seven rebounds and two steals. Sophomore guard Denikka Brent (Mechanical Engineering – Chesapeake, VA/Booker T. Washington HS) also added 17 points, nine rebounds and three strals.

Molloy was paced by three scorers in double-figures. Ikema Ross was a force on the glass with 14 points and a game-high 16 rebounds. Kelly Guerriero was 3-of-4 from three-point range in the 2^ndhalf (4-of-8 for the game) to help the Lions claw back from a nine-point deficit as she finished with 12 points for the day. And Ashley Addison scored eight points during a 16-2 Lions charge in the second half and finished with 11 points.

After four-and-a-half minutes of play to open the game, Molloy held a narrow, 5-4 edge after a one-of-two trip at the free-throw line by Ross. At that point though, the Firebirds soared on a 14-0 run, holding Molloy scoreless for over six minutes to take an 18-5 lead. Brent had six points and an assist during that stretch. The Lions then mounted an 11-4 run, culminating in a Kimani Jackson jumper to close the gap to 22-16 with just over five minutes left in the first half. However, Brent's layup at the 1:29 mark capped an 11-2 Firebirds response to put District of Columbia in front, 33-18. Molloy scored the final three points of the half to make it 33-21 at intermission.

Layups by Calhoun and junior forward Robin Keke helped the Firebirds extend their lead to 37-23 in the first 1:30 of the closing period, but the Lions came roaring back with a 16-2 charge to tie the game at 39-all at the 13:23 mark. At that juncture, senior guard Janelle Junior's three-pointer sparked a 9-0 Firebirds run that lifted District of Columbia to a 48-39 lead with 11 minutes to play, but three consecutive three-pointers in three minutes by Molloy's Guerriero forced another tie, 48-48. Following a Firebirds timeout, Calhoun single-handedly led District of Columbia on a 5-0 run to put her team up 53-48 with 5:22 remaining. Then, after Molloy had pulled back within one, Calhoun made 4-of-4 from the free-throw line as part of a 6-0 Firebirds run to push District of Columbia ahead, 59-52 with just under 3:30 on the clock. The Lions could never make it a one-possession game after that as the Firebirds went on to win by a five-point margin.  

 District of Columbia shot 50-percent from the field in the first half while holding Molloy to 24-percent shooting. But in the second half, Molloy out-shot the Firebirds, 36-percent to 32-percent from the field and outscored its guests 38-31. Still, even though the Lions fought back from 14-point and nine-point deficits to force two ties in the second half, they never took a lead in the closing period. The Firebirds won the rebounding battle, 44-40 and more than doubled-up their hosts, 36-16 in points in the paint. Also, while the two teams combined for 39 turnovers, District of Columbia was the better team in transition with 17 fast break points to Molloy's 10.

The Firebirds have a week off before they host ECC foe Mercy for their season finale. The University of the District of Columbia will honor the Firebirds' two seniors, Ty Abilla and Janelle Junior before the game.

The greatest weapon against cancer... hidden in plain sight?

Dear Reader,

It’s rare when we’re actually on the same page as the FDA.

That’s why we were happy to see the Food and Drug Administration approved this 95% accurate, early cancer test. We figured that would give it the boost to easily become mainstream.

So we’re appalled to know that most people don’t know this simple test is available! The research behind it is published in respected medical journals, including The Lancet and Cancer Detection andPrevention... yet most doctors have never heard of this simple test!

That’s why we’re putting extra effort into making sure this discoverygets to the public. Please take a few minutes to watch this special presentation. You’ll learn how to get the full story on the breakthrough that could give you or a loved one an early cancer diagnosis. It could truly make all the difference in your future health.

Sincerely,

Sarah Jones
The Institute for Natural Healing

Let's face it, there are only so many extra calories that the body can take before it adds those on as unwanted fat. Even if you're eating perfectly healthy meals and putting in your time at the gym, if your snacking is out of control then your results will be disappointing. Here's what you need to know to avoid The Snack Trap: 1) Calories Count. Even when you're snacking on "healthy" food, you've got to keep track of how many calories that you're taking in. Almonds are healthy, but if you down 800 extra calories in them you'll quickly gain weight. 2) Fill Up on Protein & Fat. A lot of well-meaning people are still afraid of fat. They think that if their snack is high in fat then it will end up on their body as fat. This is simply not true. Healthy fat, such as avocado or almonds, is a wonderful thing to snack on as it fills you up and keeps you full longer. 3) Avoid Sugar Calories. Sugar is an awful thing to snack on when weight loss is your goal. Refined sugar is a catalyst for fat storage, so avoid any snack that contains sugar. Remember that eating sugar will satiate your hunger for a very short period of time, and then you'll quickly be hungry again. 4) Don't Be Fooled By 100-Calorie Packs. A popular marketing technique is to package junk food into 100-calorie packs. These could be crackers, cookies, chips...basically any guilty snack food you could think of. The premise is that since you're only eating 100 calories, the snack is healthy. I'm sorry, folks, but eating 100 calories of junk food is not a healthy snack. You are better off avoiding the junk completely and eating something wholesome. 5) Use The 'Is It Real' Test. As a rule of thumb, you should use the "Is it real?" test when deciding if a snack is worth eating. The test goes like this: If your snack can go bad, then it's good for you. If your snack can't go bad, then it's bad for you. The idea is to eat fresh, real foods that are unprocessed and wholesome. These real foods are naturally filled with fiber, vitamins, and minerals and will assist you in achieving your fitness goals. 6) Avoid Refined Carbohydrates. Processed and refined carbohydrates make up the bulk of popular snack foods. Take a look around the snack aisle at the grocery store and you will see that most packaged snacks are made with grains. When your goal is to lose weight and increase lean muscle then eating refined grains will work against you. If you only take one tip away from this article, let it be to remove grain-based snacks from your life. This single change could very well recharge your weight loss. Now you know how to snack in a healthy way that will not derail your fitness goals. Remember that exercise plays a huge part in getting in shape and losing weight.
