Dakota State University's Lady Trojans completed a 2-0
performance in the TeamMakers Women's Basketball Classic
with an 83-58 win over host Dakota Wesleyan University
Friday at the Mitchell Corn Palace.
The Lady T's raised their season mark to 11-5,
while forcing DWU into a 5-12 mark.
"Overall,
we played pretty well at the Classic this weekend",
said DSU Coach Jeff Dittman.
"We were able to generate a lot of offense the
second half against Wesleyan and defensively, we held
them below 60 points. I would have liked for us to
defend the three point shot a little better but DWU has
some excellent shooters with very long range. They
extended our defense quite a bit.
Fortunately, we were able to hit some threes of our own
and counter their shooting."
