Lady Raiders breeze past Lipscomb
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee went into Sunday 12-0 all-time against in-state foe Lipscomb, and Anastasia Hayes made sure the Lady Raiders stayed perfect.
The junior Murfreesboro native couldn't be stopped by the Bisons (3-2). She scored 35 points, two off her career high, on 12-of-21 shooting to lead MT (2-3) to an 84-64 win, also adding eight rebounds.
"I just let the game come to me," Hayes said. "They're a pretty rough team, so I just tried to not let them get in my head and let the game come to me slowly and take my time."
Hayes came out aggressive from the opening tip, scoring 21 points in the first half as the Lady Raiders opened up as much as a 14-point lead.
