The Lady Bears came back from a first half 11-point deficit to win 61-52 on senior night. For the three seniors, it was their last time playing at JQH Arena.
“it’s just the last time we’re going to walk out of this tunnel,” senior guard Lexi Hughes said. “That’s hard. Especially when you want to keep coming with such a great atmosphere and we’ll never get that again. It flies by.”
Hughes and senior forwards Rachel Swartz and Onye Osemenam were freshmen when head coach Kellie Harper took over.
“I think a common pattern regardless of who we’re playing is that coach Kellie wants us to work on ourselves first,” Osemenam said.
