The UALR women's basketball team jumped to a big lead in its regular-season finale Thursday, then senior guard Alexius Dawn made sure the Trojans' winning streak continued.
Dawn scored 24 points, including four free throws in the final minute, to lead UALR to a 72-67 victory at Appalachian State on Thursday in Boone, N.C.
The victory ensured the Trojans (18-11, 16-4) will enter next week's Sun Belt Conference Tournament in New Orleans on a 13-game winning streak, which ties their largest mark in five seasons. The No. 2 seed Trojans will play a yet-to-be-determined team at 5 p.
