Box Score (html)
 
WEATHERFORD, Okla. – In their final regular season games at SWOSU, senior standouts Hailey Tucker and Hayden Priddy combined to score 51 points and lead the Lady Bulldogs to a 101-62 rout of Ouachita on Saturday afternoon at the Pioneer Cellular Event Center.
 
With the victory, the Great American Conference champion Lady Dawgs improve to 25-1 on the year and 20-0 in GAC play while completing a second consecutive undefeated season on their home floor.
 
SWOSU battled the Senior Day emotions from the outset and slowly got going against the Tigers, falling behind by six points late in the first quarter and trailing 21-18 at the end of the period. Tucker and Priddy hit back-to-back three-pointers to put SWOSU up midway through the second and they never relinquished the lead from that point on.
 
The Lady Bulldogs built a 43-36 lead by halftime but really pulled away in the second half, hitting better than 50% from the field in both quarters to run away with the victory. SWOSU outscored Ouachita 58-26 in the second half and topped the century mark for the third time this season on a three-pointer from Alexa Harvey in the game's final minute.
 
Tucker led the way for SWOSU with 28 points, six rebounds, four steals, three assists and one blocked shot in 33 minutes of action, hitting 10-of-20 field goal attempts and three three-pointers in the victory. Priddy flirted with a triple-double in the contest, scoring 23 points and dishing out 11 assists while also pulling down seven rebounds and grabbing three steals. Both of the Lady Bulldogs other seniors – Katie Percival and Savannah Gray –knocked down three-pointers to get in the scoring column on Senior Day.
 
In total, 11-of-12 players who saw the court got in the scoring column, with Taber Beer, Taylor Hedrick and Dovile Strimaitye each adding eight points apiece off the bench while Maddie Sperle had seven and Harvey knocked down both of her three-point attempts for six points.
 
The Lady Bulldogs head on the road to wrap up the regular season, with a trip to Searcy, Ark., on Thursday to face Harding up next on the schedule.
