Coach Tony Bozzella's Lady Gaels won their fourth game in their last 5 games with a hard fought 67-61 win over Niagara. The Lady Gaels were up early in the second half 38-30 but Niagara came back to take a 54-53 lead with 3:53 left before Iona outscored Niagara 14-7 the rest of the way for the victory. Iona's only loss in their last five games was at home to Canisius, who will be their opponent on Sunday at Canisius. The Golden Griffins defeated Fairfield tonight 85-73. Iona is now 4-3 in conference, 7-9 overall. The Lady Gaels have more wins this year then they had all of last year and are currently tied for third in the conference with Fairfield and Loyola. Canisius is second in the conference, one game behind undefeated Marist.
