Hot Shooting Propels Meredith Past Greensboro

GREENSBORO, N.C. | Meredith shot 40% from the field and had four players scored double figures in Saturday's 60-46 win over Greensboro College. Rylie Wade recorded her fifth double double of the season, scoring 11 points and hauling in 11 rebounds.

QUOTING HEAD COACH MEGAN RAHN:
"It feels great to be back in the win column against a tough conference opponent. This was a confident team win with contributions across the board."

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE:
  • Danae Hawkins hit a three to jump start Meredith. Kylie Wade and Rylie Wade dominated the rest of the quarter combining for 10 points as Meredith took the 15-8 advantage into the second frame.
  • Emme Baber nailed a triple to push Meredith's lead to nine, 22-13. Paris Bethea joined in on the success from deep and buried a three. Late in the second, Pam Mock drove the lane, made a layup through contact, and drew the foul. She calmly registered her free throw to complete the three-point play.
  • After a strong 20 minutes, the Avenging Angels led 34-24.
  • Meredith didn't waiver in the final two quarters. The Avenging Angels played stellar defense and continued shooting well, scoring 13 points in each frame to secure the road win.
