The Southern Methodist University women’s basketball team failed to stay above water against an early lead from Eastern Carolina on Saturday afternoon, losing 74-64 at home.
SMU (13-13 overall, 7-8 conference) fell short, as SMU Head Coach Toyelle Wilson categorized the loss as “a subpar game” by her players.
“Overall, we got to play better to beat good teams in this conference and we didn’t play like that,” Coach Wilson said at the post-game press conference.
Senior Guard Reagan Bradley also deeply reflected on the game and SMU’s initial early decline.
“We dug ourselves a hole [early on in the game] and we were climbing to fight out of it,” Bradley said in an interview Tuesday.
