Tigers Edge Lady Techsters In Monday Match-Up

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Another double-double by Cheyenne Creighton and double-figure scoring efforts by Taylor Williams and Brea Elmore lead the University of Memphis women's basketball team to a 56-54 victory over Louisiana Tech Monday evening. The victory improves Memphis to 5-6 on the year and 4-2 at the Elma Roane Fieldhouse.

How It Happened
Memphis jumped out to a quick 5-0 start due in part to a pair of free throws by Creighton and a three-pointer by Williams. Louisiana Tech cut the Tiger lead to two just over three and a half minutes into the contest, but through the first quarter that would be the closest Memphis would allow the Lady Techsters.
