Brooklyn, NY – Holding a seven point lead after the first period of Monday night's non-conference women's basketball game at the Pratt Institute, Keystone College outscored the hosts 33-8 in the second quarter to open up a 32-point halftime lead and never looked back on their way to a 74-26 victory.  The Giants improve to 2-0 on the young season while the Cannoneers remain winless in three contests.
