Mountaineers dominate in annual Play4Kay game

In front of a season-high crowd of over 1,500 fans, App State women’s basketball dominated the Texas State Bobcats 73-55 Saturday in Holmes Convocation Center. The annual Play4Kay Pink Game supports those with breast cancer.

Redshirt junior guard Janay Sanders led the way with a career-high 25 points, while dishing three assists. Three Mountaineers scored in double digits, leading App State to the double-digit win. Reflected in the victory, the Play4Kay game means more than basketball for head coach Angel Elderkin and the team.

“We’ve tried to educate our team just in terms of somebody you know is going to face this battle and can we use our platform and the tools that we’ve given you today to teach them how to fight,” Elderkin said.
