Pomona-Pitzer was at home on Wednesday to face cross-campus rival Claremont-Mudd-Scripps.  Neither team was able to establish a rhythm in the early going, and 10 minutes into the game the Sagehens held an 8-2 lead. The defensive battle continued with the Sagehens able to build a 21-13 lead at the break.  Pomona-Pitzer managed to keep a safe cushion for most of the second half, but the Stags did pull to within four at 39-35 with just under three minutes to play. Back-to-back one and one's by Adam Chaimowitz and David Liss put the Sagehens back up 43-35, and good free throw shooting down the stretch gave Pomona-Pitzer the 47-36 victory.  The Sagehens out-rebounded the Stags 49-38 and held the Stags to just 23% shooting from the field.

Liss paced the Sagehens with 14 points followed by Justin Sexton with 11. Sexton came up huge on the glass, pulling down a career high 25 rebounds.
