Edward Waters Edges FVSU Women’s Hoops

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Wildcats took the opening fourth-quarter lead, but they were unable to recapture it Monday evening. Edward Waters put in the next four points to edge ahead and held on for the tight women's basketball final, 58-54.

Shekinah Rachel laid the ball in only 1:21 into the final 10 minutes to give the Wildcats (3-9/3-6 SIAC East). The Lady Tigers (7-8/3-4 SIAC East) netted a pair of free throws and then a jumper to go ahead, 46-43, at 6:15. Edward Waters pushed the margin to as many as eight, 54-46, with 1:38, but FVSU was only able to get back to within four points three times, including the final tally.

Diamond Jones guided the FVSU attack with 19 points, including 8 of 9 free throws, while she had three rebounds, three assists and two steals. Rachel recorded her first double-double of the year with 12 points and 12 boards to go with two blocks and a steal. Torri Myers was the third double-figure scorer with 11 points on 5 of 11 shooting and seven rebounds.

Jourdan Avery scored a game-high 19 points for the Lady Tigers. The home team went 7 of 20 from long range, while FVSU was only 1 of 9.

The Wildcats started the night strong. After the opening EWU 3-pointer, FVSU ran off the next 11 points with an Amiya Allen jumper to finish it at 6:07. The visitors increased the difference to 10 points, 16-6, on a Jones free throw at 2:57.

FVSU returns home this weekend for a Saturday afternoon, Jan. 14, 1 p.m. contest against Allen University.
