The Patriots scored the first seven points of the second quarter, and Cynnetha Bellinger’s three-point play upped the lead to 19-14.
Norwich closed to 25-24 after a layup from Collier; however, the Patriots spurted for six points in the final two minutes of the quarter, four coming from Bellinger.
A dominant third quarter saw a five-point halftime lead rise to 14 with Binghamton finishing the stanza on an 11-1 run.
Bellinger and Brianna Sheppard had 13 points apiece to lead Binghamton.
Norwich (7-8) fell below the .500 mark with Collier scoring 12 points and Testani 11 in the loss. Norwich hosts Johnson City Saturday evening.
