Lady Raiders overcome slow start, dispatch New Mexico

As Jada Terry skied high to steal the ball off a mid-court pass, Candi Whitker could only smile and laugh.

It hadn’t been the day the Lady Raiders expected, but they still found a way to win

After two straight games with 90 points, the Lady Raiders’ shooting had cooled off.

But, with a late surge from Recee’ Caldwell and steady hands from Arella Guriantes and Terry, the Lady Raiders dispatched New Mexico 69-58 on Sunday at United Supermarkets Arena.

Down 53-51, Caldwell finally found her rhythm and broke and 0-12 slump by draining a 3 from the top of the key.
