BOONE, N.C. – The App State women's basketball team clashed with Southern Miss on Thursday for the first time in conference play, falling to the Lady Eagles, 75-68.
"All week long we talked about protecting the house and went into battle in the paint and I thought Southern Miss was a very good team, a very well coached team. They exploited us with number 45, she was able to have 26 points and 15 rebounds, and 42 points in the paint to our 26 was just a difference maker," said head coach Angel Elderkin.
