Three score in double-figures as Aces downed at Loyola

CHICAGO, Ill. - The University of Evansville women's basketball team got off to a hot start, but was cooled-off in the second quarter in an 82-63 loss to Loyola in Chicago, Ill. on Sunday afternoon.

"The first quarter wasn't too bad. We gave them some easy looks and some things they shouldn't have, but that second quarter is unacceptable," said Aces head coach Matt Ruffing. "Credit to Kate (Octer) and her staff. They got their kids to play harder than we did and that's something we've seen over and over and over again,"

Junior guard Kerri Gasper (15) and redshirt sophomore guard Marley Miller (14) combined for 29 points to lead the Aces while freshman guard Kayla Casteel added 13 points for UE.
