APSU Women’s Basketball
Clarksville, TN – Austin Peay State University women’s basketball team allowed 14 three-point field goals and dropped a 69-42 non-conference contest to Bowling Green, Saturday, at the Dunn Center.
Bowling Green (10-1), ranked No. 2 in the www.CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Poll, ran its win streak to 10 games primarily on the back of its three-point shooting. The Falcons shot more three-point field goals (30) than they did two-point field goals (26). However, it worked out for the visitors as they made 46.7 percent from outside compared to just 38.5 percent inside.
Austin Peay (2-9) lost its third consecutive game and remained winless at the Dunn Center in three tries this season. The Lady Govs again suffered through a seven-minute scoreless streak in the first half and another six-minute drought in the second half, allowing the Falcons to build double-digit margins each time.The Lady Govs did open each half impressively, scoring seven of the game’s first 10 points in the opening 3:34. APSU’s second half start was even better, a 9-0 burst over the first 3:32 that cut the lead to seven points, 34-27. However, they went into their second-half drought right after scoring their ninth point of the frame.
Sophomore Meghan Bussabarger led the Lady Govs with 14 points and seven rebounds, reach double-digits in scoring for the fourth consecutive game. However, she was the only Lady Govs player to reach double-digit territory.
Austin Peay was held to a season-low 26.9 percent (14-of-52) from the field, including just 23.1 percent (3-of-13) from three-point range.
Senior Lauren Prochaska – the two-time Mid-American Conference Player of the Year – rebounded from a five-point first-half effort to finish with a game-high 22 points. Jen Uhl scored 14 points, all in the first half.
Austin Peay returns to action with a 2:00pm, Sunday, December 19th contest against Eastern Kentucky.
