TROY, Alabama – The Troy women's basketball team claimed sole possession of second place in the Sun Belt Conference standings with a 78-66 win over Coastal Carolina in Trojan Arena on Saturday.
The win coupled with UT Arlington's loss to Georgia State on Saturday gives Troy the inside track at the second seed in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament and potentially a shot at the regular season league title.
In the third quarter, Troy (18-7, 11-3 SBC) pulled away in what had been a back-and-forth affair most of the afternoon despite only trailing for just 2:49 of the game.
