Troy’s women’s basketball team returned home on Thursday, Feb. 25, defeating UL-Lafayette 90-83 and UL-Monroe 74-64 on Saturday, Feb. 27.

The Trojans’ victory in their game against UL-Lafayette was their 16th game over 80 points, as well as their first against the Ragin’ Cajuns (18-9, 11-7 Sun Belt) to score at least 90.

The game was close from the beginning, but it became closer in the last few minutes due to a late comeback by the visitors. After the Ragin’ Cajuns captured a three-point lead, the Trojans came back in the final minutes, hitting six field goals and five free throws and missing none.
