Blakemore Shoots Perfect from the Field in Big Time Win Over the Greyhounds

Bolivar, Mo- The SBU Women's basketball team played host to the University of Indianapolis Greyhounds this evening. The match was between the 10th (SBU) and 8th (UINDY) seed in the GLVC standings. It was a tight matchup the whole way through with the Bearcats pulling out the win 70-66. That win moves the Bearcats to 13-10 (8-7 GLVC.)
 
"I was really proud of our kids at halftime, they had some things written down that they didn't think they did very good," Head Coach Kelsey Keizer. "And I thought we did good things, they just hit a lot of shots, they hit a lot of threes they took advantage of every mistake we made. I think we got down as much as 13, but our fight just stayed at a high level, and I thought we just continued to compete and what helped us today, in those moments where they shot those three's and started getting hot, is we scored on the other end. It was nice to have production from a number of people and that kept us in the game. So, the adjustments we made at halftime, we were able to come out on top."
 
Kelsey Blakemore went a perfect 5-5 from the field and contributed 15 points, second on the team. A familiar Kyleigh Vaught did have the team high of 20 points. Seven other Bearcats contributed to the scoreboard in the Bearcats 70-point victory. The Bearcats stole the ball away from the Greyhounds 12 times tonight taming their above 50% field goal percentage.
 
The Bearcats host the Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles this coming Saturday. The last time these two met in Evansville, Indiana where the Bearcats fell just short 74-79. SBU will look for revenge, with a scheduled tip time of 1:00 PM.
