BUIES CREEK, N.C. – With both teams hungry for a win in week two of the campaign, the Radford women's basketball team took care of business to the tune of an 83-56 victory on Wednesday night at the Pope Convocation Center.
KEY STATS
After taking a hypothetical punch to the mouth on Saturday at EKU, tonight's contest was a key one to get back on track for Radford. Nice got the game going, scoring on a drive to the hoop and hitting from behind the arc for Radford's first five points. The run continued, as Simonsen and Kailyn Fields scored off turnovers to make it a 10-2 run. Shots continued to fall for the Highlanders, as Nice and Haywood gave Radford a double-digit lead midway through the quarter. Campbell battled back, with Jasmine Felton sinking shots left and right to cut the deficit to two points after one.
Simonsen ended the first quarter with a bucket and started the second quarter with two more, stretching the lead back out to multiple possessions. A 9-0 run through the middle of the quarter made it a 14-point game and forced Campbell to take a timeout with 4:30 left. The break stopped the run but did not get the Fighting Camels any closer on the scoreboard, with a mid-range jumper by Cate Carlson and a three-pointer from Logan Luebbers Palmer answering a Campbell bucket. Genesis Schneeberg made a couple of shots to cut Campbell's deficit to 13 at the break.
The defense and the constant drive to get to the basket helped the Highlanders put the game away in the third quarter. After Campbell hit back-to-back threes to make it a 10-point game with 4:37 left in the third, A three-point play from Haywood helped break the stride. Simonsen and Nice battled and drew fouls, earning multiple trips to the free throw line to extend the run. A layup from Nice capped an 11-0 run and made it a 21-point game near the end of the third chapter.
The fourth quarter saw several members of Radford's bench get a chance to shine. Jordin Richardson drove and made three layups to extend the advantage to 28. Kerri Fluellen added her name to the scorebook, driving and scoring for Radford's final points in the 83-56 win.
FROM COACH MCGUIRE
"I was curious to see how our team would respond after Saturday's contest," began Head Coach Mike McGuire postgame. "We are proud of our approach, and this was character building in several ways. This series has a long history, and we wanted to represent the program well tonight. Our offensive discipline and execution were much better. We are going to enjoy this win."
UP NEXT
The Highlanders return to the Dedmon Center for an Education Day contest against Ferrum. Tip-off is set for 11:00 a.m. on Monday, November 16th and can be seen on ESPN+ and heard on WRAD 103.5 FM.
