The Concord University women's basketball team dropped a West Virginia
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference match-up to 12th ranked Glenville
State Thursday night at Jesse R. Lilly Gym, 95-74.
Concord (7-20, 6-15 WVIAC) was led by double-doubles from sophomore guard Stephanie Wagner. And sophomore forward Rachel Artrip.
Wagner matched her season-high with 10 assists while committing just one
turnover to go with 10 points for her first double-double of the
season. She nearly pulled off a triple-double after coming away with
nine rebounds.
Artrip, who was making her first start since Dec. 6, set career-highs
with 24 points and 11 rebounds. She shot 43.5 percent (10-for-23) from
the field and made 4-of-5 free throws. The 24 points is tied for the
third-highest individual scoring effort by a Concord player this season.
Junior guard Amanda Smith scored 12 points to finish in double figures
for the fifth time in six games. Freshman guard Leslie Mack rounded out
Concord's top scorers with 10 points off the bench to go with two
steals.
Sophomore forward Jacqueline Kestner registered eight rebounds; Kestner
has pulled down at least eight rebounds in four Concord's last five
games.
Concord kept the game close for the opening 10 minutes of play, leading
10-8 at one point and trialing by just three points with 10 minutes left
in the period. However, the Pioneers used a 32-17 run over the final
portion of the first half to extend its lead to 52-34 going into
halftime.
Glenville State led by as many as 25 points in the second half on its way to the 95-74 win.
Glenville's Ginny Mills, who currently holds the top spot in the WVIAC
in three-pointers made (3.45/game), was the leading scorer for the
evening with 33 points.
Concord will close out the regular season at home 2:00 p.m. Saturday against Bluefield State in the Carter Center.
