![]() Lady Bucs Basketball Pounds Harding, 76-56
MEMPHIS, TN— Slowed by poor shooting performance in the first half (39.3 percent from the floor), CBU responded in the second half of play with a 51.9 shooting percentage from the field combined with a staggering and tireless defense that forced 25 Harding turnovers. The Lady Bucs would convert those 25 HU miscues into 18 points, while also controlling a 13-0 advantage on second-chance baskets. CBU outscored the Lady Bison 44-22 in the second half. Amonica Wiggins would turn in the performance of her season, as the junior forward netted a perfect 6-of-6 tries from the field to finish with a team high 17-points. Wiggins would also collect a team-high seven rebounds, while teammate Mary Buford offered six rebounds with her 16-point night on 5-of-10 shooting. The shooting guard combination of Rubenia Finley and Sarah Condra would also find the double-figure mark, as the two added 12 and 10 point outings, respectively. Kendra Bell’s 17 points off the bench would pace the Lady Bison offense. Teammate Mindy Napier bottomed 5-of-8 tries from the floor to collect 13 points in her 35 minutes of action. CBU improved its overall stand to 11-13 on the year, while climbing to a 4-10 mark in GSC competition. The Harding Lady Bison fall to 10-13 for the season with a 4-9 league record. The Lady Bucs will take to the road for the last time on the 2001-2002 regular season schedule when CBU travels to Cleveland, MS to battle the Delta State University Lady Statesmen. Game time is slated for 6 PM start on February 19th.
