SAN ANTONIO – The Wiley College women's basketball team kept pace with the Red River Athletic Conference champion No. 14 Our Lady of the Lake University in the first half but were unable to contain the Saints in the second half of a 122-86 loss on Saturday in a Red River Athletic Conference game.

The Lady Wildcats (11-12, 9-7) shot 13-for-19 in the first quarter and held a few two-point leads. They committed six turnovers and missed three of four free throw attempts. Our Lady of the Lake made a run late in the quarter to hold a two-point advantage.

Wiley College trailed by as many as eight in the second quarter. A 3-pointer by Colby Hughes (SO/Peoria, Illinois) sparked a rally. Kyani Moore (FR/Orlando, Florida) scored two second chance buckets which cut the margin to two. The Lady Wildcats went into halftime with a six-point deficit.

The Saints ended any hope of a second half comeback with a 26-point run in the third quarter. Wiley College had 15 turnovers in the third quarter and only made five of 15 field goal attempts. It struggled at the free throw line only hitting one of four attempts.

"We had a strong start, but didn't come out with the same intensity in the second half," head coach Lenise Stallings said. "We have to do better playing through adversity and fighting back against good teams."

"It was a rough game," said Brandon K. Dumas, Ph.D., director of intercollegiate athletics and vice president of student affairs. "I'm looking forward to us returning home and finishing the regular season strong."

Brianna Tolliver (SR/Dallas, Texas) led the Lady Wildcats with 20 points. She added seven rebounds and four assists. Moore followed with 18 points and seven rebounds. Hughes finished with 12 points, four rebounds and two steals.

Wiley College will finish the regular season at home against Texas College on Thursday and Jarvis Christian College on Saturday.
