\n\tA trio of Davis, Agar Farr\u00e9s Garcia, and Hana M\u00fchl tallied the first six points of the evening, with M\u00fchl’s\u00a0jumper giving the visitors a brief lead midway through the frame.
\n\tThe Gaels bursted out on a 10-2 run to take a six point edge by the three minute mark of the opening quarter.
\n\tAs the two sides exchanged deep shots before the first quarter horn, Iona took a four point edge into the second.
\n\tIt was the hosts who stretched out their advantage to double digits, following a layup from Isabellah Middleton.
\n\tDavis converted a pair from the stripe just before the break, with the Gaels now holding an eight point margin headed into the locker room.
\n\tThe Bronx, N.Y. native scored eight of the 12 points from the Green and White throughout the whole third quarter, as the Jaspers faced a 12 point deficit going to the final quarter.
\n\tSeven unanswered points came by the way of the road team to kick off the fourth, capped off by yet another Davis jumper.\u00a0
\n\tFarr\u00e9s Garcia pulled up from about 10 feet away from the basket with around five minutes to play, knocking down the crucial shot to bring Manhattan within three.
\n\tAt 55 all, two free throws from Farr\u00e9s Garcia tied the game for the first time since 4-4 in the first quarter.
\n\tWhile the game was within two in the final 30 seconds, the free throw game was won by Iona, giving them their 12th and final win in the regular season.

\n\tSenior guard Brianna Davis<\/a> set a new career-high with 30 points on 10-for-16 shooting. This is the first 30 point game by a Jasper since Dee Dee Davis on January 12, 2023, when the current assistant coach scored 37 against Siena.\u00a0
\n\tGraduate forward Colette Mulderig<\/a> followed with 10 of her own, for her 16th double-digit performance this season.
\n\tGraduate forward Agar Farr\u00e9s Garcia led the team in rebounds with 13, her fifth\u00a0consecutive game with at least 10 boards.
\n\tManhattan shot at its best rate in the final\u00a0quarter, with a 44% clip.
