NEW YORK (Interstat) — Fairleigh Dickinson used a dominant fourth quarter to overcome a slow start and defeat Wagner 56-46 in a women’s NCAA Division I basketball game Thursday night at Spiro Sports Center.

The Knights, who trailed by two at halftime, were held to just 17 first-half points but exploded for 26 in the final period to secure the road victory. The Seahawks could not sustain their early momentum, falling despite outscoring Fairleigh Dickinson in the second and third quarters.

The win improves Fairleigh Dickinson to 14-4 overall. Wagner drops to 6-10. An announced crowd of 249 attended the Northeast Conference matchup.
