24-25 WBB Conference Action

[geezer]

Lamar women return to SLC action Thursday at 7PM versus UIW.  Cards won their opening conference game in December before closing out the non-conference schedule and taking a long Christmas break.

Ladies open like they never took any time off with a 21-7 first quarter.  Cards shoot 64% from the field and lead in rebounding.  Only rusty spot is turnovers where the Cards have two more than UIW.

[geezer]

Lamar up 41-15 at the half.  Second quarter was almost a repeat of the first quarter 20-8.

[geezer]

UIW outscore Lamar by one in the third quarter as Lamar's shooting percentage falls and UIW starts hitting some shots.  Lamar still committing way too many turnovers as they now have twenty-one for the game.

UIW outscores Lamar in the second half but are unable to overcome the first half deficit.  Lamar improves to two and zero in conference play one game back of Southeastern who has won their first three conference games.  Final score LU 69 - UIW 47

The Ladies return to action this evening taking on UNO.    UNO is currently 0-3 in conference action.  Tip-off is at 7PM

[geezer]

Lamar outscores UNO 22-8 in the first quarter.

[geezer]

Lamar up 76-43 going into the fourth quarter.

[geezer]

Final score 94-52 Lamar on top.  Cards hold UNO to single digits in the first and fourth quarters.  With big wins, it is kind of picky to look for negatives, but the coaches will, so free throw percentage was lower than normal, and first half turnovers.  Ladies will take on SFA Saturday afternoon beginning at 3 PM.
