In a battle of premier offense versus premier defense, the offense took the victory, as the WKU women's basketball team defeated North Texas 79-65.
The Lady Toppers (15-5, 6-1 Conference USA) traveled to Benton, Texas, Friday night to take on North Texas in the second game of a three game road trip and came out with an easy win. The Mean Green were a little short-handed as their second-leading scorer Lauren Holmes did not play.
North Texas got out to a 5-0 lead to start the game, but the Lady Toppers quickly took control and took an 11-9 lead on an Ivy Brown 3-pointer that gave WKU a lead it would never surrender.
