Final Box Score
SEWANEE, Tenn. (Nov. 29, 2011) – After falling behind early, the Sewanee women's basketball team dropped a 98-70 non-conference decision to Emory Tuesday inside Juhan Gymnasium.
Early on, Sewanee (3-2) trailed the Eagles 42-21 after Emory's Katie Dickerson hit a jumper with 05:39 remaining in the first half. From there Sewanee used a 13-5 run the next 3:36 to pull within 47-34 just before the intermission.
Unfortunately, that would be as close as Sewanee got the remainder of the contest.
One key difference for the Tigers were their inability to stop Emory in transition. The Eagles finished with 24 fast break points to go along with 50 points inside the paint.
A low shooting percentage and turnovers eliminated any comeback by the purple and gold. The Tigers shot only 26 percent the second half while committing 21 turnovers in the game.
Junior guard
Dana Middleton led the Tigers with 15 points on 5-of-17 shooting. Senior guard
Logan Miller added 12 points while freshman guard
Devon Gunn finished with 10. Freshman forward
Kayla Sewell led Sewanee on the glass, with a game-high 11 rebounds.
Emory was paced by guard Hannah Lilly who led all players with a game-high 26 points.
