Krystan Vornes said she was just following Coach Joe Foley's friendly advice Sunday afternoon in UALR's 63-47 victory over Western Kentucky at the Jack Stephens Center.
"He said if I continue to rebound and get easy buckets, our team will win," Vornes said.
Foley's pep talk came after Vornes had 11 points and 12 rebounds in a 79-56 loss to No. Texas A&M on Thursday.
Nine of Vornes' points against A&M came in the fourth quarter, and the University of Arkansas-Little Rock coach wanted to see some carryover by Vornes.
He did.
Vornes, a 6-2 senior post from Osceola, kept on rebounding against Western Kentucky, with 12 in the first half, but was 2 of 5 from the field and 1 of 5 from the free-throw line.
