Racers run away late to down Govs

January 10, 2010 |

Murray State used a 16-0 late-game run to break open a tight game and defeat Austin Peay State University, 69-53, in Ohio Valley Conference action, Saturday night, in Dave Aaron Arena.

The victory improved Murray State to 13-3 overall and 5-0 in the OVC. Meanwhile, the Governors slip to 9-9 overall and 3-3 in the OVC. It was only Murray State’s third win in Clarksville since 1997 and first since 2006.

The Racers used suffocating defense to hold APSU to just 33.3 percent (13 of 33) shooting. In fact, the 13 field goals were the fewest by the Governors since making only 13 field goals at Illinois in 2006.

January 10, 2010 |

Despite failing to hit a field goal in the final five minutes, Austin Peay State University women’s basketball team pulled out an 83-79 Ohio Valley Conference victory against Murray State, Saturday afternoon at the Dunn Center.

Austin Peay (5-12, 4-2 OVC) held a 70-61 lead after junior Darcie Warner’s basket with 5:12 remaining. That field goal – which was the Lady Govs final field goal of the game – was followed by Murray State’s 12-2 run over the next three minutes. The Racers took a 73-72 lead after Kristen Kluempers converted a traditional three-point play. However, her field goal was the Racers final basket.

Junior Ashley Herring led the Lady Govs with 19 points in the win against Murray State, Saturday afternoon. (Robert Smith/The Leaf-Chronicle)
