*2007-08 Season in Review*

Purchase Reaches Semifinals of Skyline Tourney
*Danio, Domes Named All-Skyline*

The underdog Panthers upset No. 4 seeded St. Joseph’s in the quarterfinals of the 2007-08 Skyline Conference Women’s Basketball Tournament before falling to powerhouse and No. 1 seeded Mt. St. Mary in the semifinals – a team that wound up winning the championship.

Purchase, who ended the season as the No. 5 seed, defeated St. Joseph’s 79-69 on the road in the playoff opener. The Panthers finished the season a game above .500, at 14-13 overall, including a 9-8 conference record.

Forward **Jennifer Danio (JR, Staten Island, NY)** reached the 1,000-point plateau this season on her way to averaging a team-high 19 points per game. Danio, who was subsequently named to the All-Skyline First Team, shot over 45% from behind the arc this season. She also led the team in rebounds with 8.5 boards.

Danio was not the only Panther to garner postseason honors. Guard **Jessie Domes (SO, Glenwood, NY)** found herself on the All-Skyline Second team. Domes finished second on the team in scoring, averaging 15.5 ppg, as well as finishing with a team-high 97 assists.

The Panthers were also led by guard **Jennifer Ciardulli (JR, Centereach, NY)**, whose all-around play often paced the team. Ciardulli, who is about 100 points shy of 1,000 for her career, finished the season averaging 10.2 ppg, while handing out 96 assists.

**Shayla Diaz (SO, Beacon, NY)**, the team’s top defender, was another big time contributor for the Panthers. Diaz is as tough as they come on the defensive end as displayed by her 87 steals.

**Amanda Capone (FR, Southold, NY)** gave the Panthers another strong outside shooter to look to this year. There was also an inside presence to be found from the play of **Janina Martinez (SR, Yonkers, NY)**, **Kernita Sylvester (SR, Bronx, NY)** and **Liila Mack (FR, Monticello, NY)**.

With all but two members of this year’s team returning next year, there is great opportunity for the Panthers to continue to grow under head coach **Steven Loscher**.
