ALABAMA A&M def. Kennesaw State, 73-66

HUNTSVILLE, Ala.  – The Lady Bulldogs jumped out to a 8-0 lead and never looked back Monday night in a 73-66 win over Kennesaw State. The win was the first of the season for the Lady Bulldogs (1-10) and snapped a seven-game winning streak for the Owls (10-3) of the Atlantic Sun conference. Janie Myles led a quartet of Lady Bulldogs who scored in double figures – a first this season. Myles scored 26 points and had a team-high 11 rebounds for her second double-double in just four games. Brooke Dixon had 15 points on 6 for 7 shooting from the field. Brittney Strickland added 11 and Alganese Gatson chipped in 10. The Lady Bulldogs shot 58 percent from the field in the first half, taking a 38-32 lead at intermission, and 50 percent in the second half. With about 14:50 left in the game, the Owls were within four points of Alabama A&M, trailing 48-44. But the Lady Bulldogs answered with a 16-5 run over the next seven minutes for their largest lead of the game, 64-49. The Owls then rallied, cutting the margin to 70-65 with 1:06 to play, but couldn’t get closer. Alabama A&M begins SWAC play Saturday when Jackson State visits Elmore Gym. The Lady Bulldogs tip off at 4 p.m.

Shortly following they went on a 12-7 run to take their largest lead of the second half.

The Lady Tigers will travel to Lorman, Miss. to face Alcorn State January 3 at 3 p.m.  as they kick off SWAC play.

WACO, Texas – The No. 6 Baylor Lady Bears proved to be too much for Prairie View A&M on Monday as they defeated the Lady Panthers 108-64 in the non-conference finale for both teams. At the Ferrell Center on the Baylor University campus, Nina Davis scored 20 points to lead five Lady Bears scoring in double-figures. Senior guard Jeanette Jackson and junior guard Lamaria Cole scored 20 points apiece to lead the Lady Panthers. Cole, a transfer from Baylor’s Big 12 rival Kansas, scored her 20 points on 5-of-13 shooting with two 3-pointers and an 8-of-11 showing from the free throw line, giving her a career high. Alexus Paarker added 16 points and a team-high high four rebounds for the Lady Panthers. Her 16 points marked a season high. Baylor used its strength and size to outrebound the Lady Panthers 70-21.

The Bears held their largest lead of the game at 45 points when Niya Johnson’s jumper in the paint gave Baylor a 95-50 lead with 4:57 left to play.
