STEVENSON, Md. - St. Mary's (Md.) used a 19-6 run to rally from a 14-point deficit midway through the second half before taking its first lead and holding off a late Stevenson rally en route to a 65-53 victory Saturday at Student Union Gymnasium.

The win was just the third in the in nine road games this season for the Seahawks (6-13, 5-6 CAC) who took their first lead, 57-55 on two free throws by Stephanie Saint-Aubin with 5:56 remaining.

Saint-Aubin finished with a career-high 30 points along with a game-high 12 rebounds for her eighth double double of the season.

The game featured five ties in the final 5:56, but the Mustangs (5-13, 3-8 CAC) could not retake the lead as St. Mary's made 8-of-10 free throws during that time, including two from Pui Sham that proved to be the game-winners with three seconds left.

Steiner's free throw with 40 seconds left tied the game at 63-63 before junior guard JaQuelia Conley (Columbia/Montrose Christian) was whistled for a questionable foul with 2.5 seconds remaining that put Sham on the line for two shots.
