RUSTON, La. – The Sam Houston Bearkat women's basketball team could not get things going on Friday night, falling 77-52 to Louisiana Tech at the Thomas Assembly center.
Â
The Kats (4-4), who were coming off a dramatic buzzer-beater victory over Longwood, put three players in double figures, led by a dozen points from both Madelyn Batista and Courtney Cleveland; however, Louisiana Tech (7-2) was too much on its home floor, forcing 25 Bearkat turnovers that resulted in 29 points.
Â
The Lady Techsters had the scoring advantage in all four quarters and dominated the paint by a 50-28 margin, attempting just five 3-pointers in the game while being led by a game-high 26 points from Keiunna Walker.
Â
Faith Cook joined Batista and Cleveland in double figures with 11 points, while LeAndra Echi got the start and added eight points and a team-high seven rebounds.
Â
The Kats will next head to Alabama for a Monday matinee contest with the Crimson Tide. The game is set for an 11:30 a.m. tipoff and will be streamed on SECN+.
