Three-point line key as Lady Tops hold off Louisiana Tech

After a heartbreaking loss to Texas San Antonio kept them from holding onto sole possession of first place in Conference USA, the WKU women's basketball team looked to bounce back Thursday night when they hosted Louisiana Tech.

Similar to the game against UTSA, the Lady Tops led nearly the entire game but had a difficult time pulling away. But thanks to 19 points from junior forward Tashia Brown and eight three pointers as a team, the Lady Tops were eventually able to hold off the Lady Bulldogs by a final score of 67-58.

The win improves WKU to 16-6 (8-2 C-USA) and drops the Lady Bulldogs to 10-11 (5-5 C-USA).
