Philadelphia - Drexel sophomore Gabriela Marginean scored her 1,000th career point three minutes and four second into the game and never looked back, pouring in a season-high 28 points in the Dragons' 68-63 victory over Towson (18-11, 10-6). Drexel did not have a field goal for the final 5:20 of the contest, but it was Marginean, hitting 9-of-10 free-throws during that stretch, who helped the Dragons hold on for a close win over the Tigers. The victory pulls Drexel ahead of Towson in the standings, but the Dragons (16-1) remain in a tie with Virginia Commonwealth for third place in the CAA with an 11-5 mark.
