St. Lawrence 64, Bowdoin 51
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — St. Lawrence senior guard Meredith Eisenhut scored a game-high 25 points, including 20-for-20 from the free throw line, to go along with seven rebounds and six steals to lead the Saints to a 64-51 victory against Bowdoin in the NCAA Division III Tournament Northeast Regional Final at Springfield College's Blake Arena tonight.

St. Lawrence, which improves to 27-3 with its 13th consecutive win, will play DePauw in the Final Four on Friday, March 15 in Terre Haute, Ind.

Eisenhut, who was named the most valuable player of the regional, eclipsed a nine-year-old NCAA Division III record going 20-for-20 at the free throw line. She breaks Juniata's Annette Hoffman's 19-for-19 performance in 1993. Saints senior guard Cara Barbierri, who scored 12 points and grabbed eight rebounds, was named to the all-regional team.

The Saints trailed by seven, 42-35, with 10:14 to play before closing out the game with a 29-9 run. Eisenhut buried 12 free throws during the crucial run to put the game away. St. Lawrence held Bowdoin scoreless over a span of 7:35 during the run.

Junior forward Kristi Royer, who was named to the all-tournament team, led the Polar Bears (26-2) with 17 points and five rebounds
