If Nightingale-Bamford was riding high fresh off their 53-22 takedown of York Prep on Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Nighthawks lost 47-27 to the Fieldston Eagles on Saturday. The Nighthawks lost against the Eagles in their previous head to head back in December of 2024, too, but the margin this time around was much closer than the 54-12 score last time.
Nightingale-Bamford's loss came despite strong showings from Isatu-Mali James and Mia Gelder. James dropped a double-double with 11 points and ten rebounds, while Gelder posted seven points. That was a full 40.7% of the Nighthawks' points, marking the fourth time in a row James has scored more than a third of the team's points. Azzy Rojas also deserves some recognition as she scored her first points of the season.
Nightingale-Bamford's loss dropped their record down to 2-2.
