Just two years removed from a season it couldn't finish, the Macalester women's basketball team produced an eye-popping victory, defeating UW-River Falls 52-46 on Wednesday night.

With a roster of six freshmen and three sophomores, the Scots have already matched last season's win total. Macalester went 2-20 in 2005-06 after an abbreviated 2004-05 campaign in which it went 0-6.

The Scots got 22 points from freshman Danielle Johnson and 16 points from classmate Ann Baltzer in the victory. They took an early 26-10 lead by holding UW-River Falls to 4-for-24 shooting. The Falcons rallied to take a 39-38 lead, but Macalester responded with a 12-2 run to take a 49-40 lead with 2:23 left in the game.
