WEATHERFORD, Okla – Head coach Kelsi Musick could not have asked for a better birthday present from her team Saturday, as they ran away from Arkansas-Monticello 95-40 to conclude an undefeated week.

SWOSU was very successful on defense, holding UAM to just 26% shooting as a team and forced 18 turnovers. The defensive effort paid dividends, as SWOSU scored 24 points off these turnovers and held Arkansas-Monticello to a season low in scoring.

Makyra Tramble had herself a day scoring the basketball, finishing with 26 points. SWOSU shot 60 percent from the field in the first quarter. They closed the quarter on a 17-0 run, which helped them build a 31-12 at the conclusion of the first quarter. Tramble matched Arkansas-Monticello's 12 points, as she scored 12 points in the first quarter alone.

The second quarter was not much different from the first quarter. The Lady Dawgs held UAM to 12 points again and led 50-24 at halftime. Tramble scored 15 points and Macy Gore scored 11 points.

In the second half, Morgan Smith played well off the bench, as she scored 14 points off the bench in the second half and shot 5-of-8 from beyond the arc. This helped SWOSU elevate their lead to more than 50 points in their largest margin of victory of the season.

SWOSU also had much success off the bench, as they scored 36 points.

Along with the great play off the bench, SWOSU scored 42 points in the paint and they made sure they got back on defense, as they did not allow a single fast break point.

Macy Gore had a double-double, as she scored 11 points and recorded 11 rebounds. Smith scored 19 points in the entire game, which was second behind Tramble's 26 points.

SWOSU improves to 17-4 and 11-2 in Great American Conference play. They'll play their next game, 5:30 p.m. Thursday at home against rival Northwestern Oklahoma State. They will look to avenge an earlier season loss to Northwestern in Alva.
