Story’s 18 points not enough as Mountaineers fall to Mavericks

Coming off of a 21-point victory over Texas State Feb. 7, the App State women’s basketball team came up short against UT Arlington, losing 72-65 in the team’s “Pack Holmes Pink” Play4Kay game on Feb. 9.

“I thought our kids continued to play hard throughout the entire game. We just could not get over the hump and ever take the lead,” head coach Angel Elderkin said.

In their first matchup, the Mountaineers took the Mavericks to double overtime where they lost in a game with 18 lead changes.
