Lady Mavericks defeat UT-San Antonio in home court nail-biter

In a battle between in-state foes, it was the final seconds that set the women’s basketball team (7-2) apart from UT-San Antonio on Thursday at College Park Center.

The Lady Mavericks returned home from a lengthy road trip to defeat the Roadrunners 53-48 while extending their win streak to five games.

After almost a month on the road, standing under their home court lights was a sight for sore eyes, head coach Krista Gerlich said.

“Today I went in to write on the board for pregame, which is what I normally do, and it was very weird,” Gerlich said.
