LWC women overcome slow start to defeat Martin Methodist By Joel Snyder Pulaski, TN - The Lindsey Wilson women's basketball team shook off a rusty first half to garner a 72-64 come-from-behind victory over host Martin Methodist (TN) on Monday evening at the Curry Christian Life Center. The tally in the win column snaps a season-long two-game skid for the Blue Raiders (13-3, 8-3 in the Mid-South Conference). Lindsey Wilson used a 16-5 run in the early stages of the third quarter to turn an 11-point deficit into a 44-44 tie with three and half minutes to play in the third frame. Reagan Turner led the charge with eight points during the run. The Blue Raiders set aside their first-half shooting woes to convert on 10-of-11 from the field in the quarter, including hitting 3-of-4 from beyond the arc. Despite entering taking a 55-51 lead into the fourth quarter, the Blue Raiders' advantage was at constant risk. Martin Methodist rekindled their scoring touch to charge back, tying the game at 60-60 with 5:25 left in regulation. Lindsey Wilson quickly regained its momentum closing with a 12-4 run, thanks in part to a clutch free throw presence that included a 6-of-8 showing in the deciding run. Turner paced the Lindsey Wilson offense with a game-high 25 points, shooting an impressive 8-of-9 from the field, including making both of her shots from 3-point territory. Bree Glover snatched her fifth double-double of her senior campaign, contributing 18 points, 10 rebounds, and three blocks. As the conference's leader in rebounds per game, Glover has corralled 10 or more rebounds in six consecutive games. As a team, the Blue Raiders finished the night shooting 48.9 percent from the field and a 75 percent showing from the foul line. The Redhawks (3-7, 2-7) played a suffocating first quarter, limiting the Lindsey Wilson offense to just 33.3 percent (4-of-12) from the field while forcing nine turnovers. The home side snuck ahead to a 13-9 lead at the 5:59 mark of the opening frame. Martin Methodist used a 7-0 run over the next three minutes and extend the lead to 22-13 at the end of the first 10 minutes. Sydnie Hall scored nine of her 14 points in the first quarter, including the Blue Raider's first seven. The two sides played an even second quarter to give the RedHawks a 35-26 lead heading into the locker room. Lindsey Wilson will look to split their four-game road trip when they travel to Bethel (TN) on Thursday. The Wildcats edged the Blue Raiders 71-70 in overtime in Columbia back on Nov. 21. Tip-off is slated for 5:30pmCT. This story was posted on 2021-01-26 06:58:14
