RALEIGH, NC - The NCWU Bishop women's hot streak continued on Wednesday night in Raleigh against the Pacers with a big conference road win 72-41.
As has been the story in previous games, the stifling defense of Wesleyan held Peace to 26% shooting from the floor and 23% from behind the arc. The post presence of the Bishops shined again on Wednesday, as the ladies recorded a remarkable 70 rebounds and held the Pacers to only 29. With rebounding also comes second chance points, with the Bishops more than doubling Peace with a 30-5 advantage in that category.
Key players for the Bishops included Kayrisma Harrison who recorded 15 points with a remarkable 21 rebounds of which 11 were offensive. Other ladies in double figures in points included Johnay Goddard with 13, Kaniya Cromartie with 10, and Nyesha Best with 10.
The Bishops will be back in action Saturday afternoon at Mary Baldwin, VA. Tip-off is scheduled for 4:30.
