BOONE, N.C. – Troy women's basketball got back into the win column Saturday afternoon thanks to a dominating second-quarter performance where they blew the game open with a 28-8 run. Troy's 81-61 victory gives them 20 wins on the season, the fifth time in head coach Chanda Rigby's career that the Trojans have won at least 20 games in a season.
The catalyst to the Trojans impressive second-quarter was the play of Japonica James and Amber Rivers. James got things started in the second with the first six points of the quarter while Rivers scored a quarter-high 8-points behind a pair of triples.
