INDIANAPOLIS - The hottest team in the GLVC got hotter Saturday as the UIndy women's basketball team (10-8, 10-8 GLVC) finished their brief home stand with a 77-66 win versus the Southwest Baptist Bearcats (4-11, 4-11). After the Greyhounds posted a 12-point lead in the first half, Taylor Drury's eight points in the fourth quarter (19 total) helped lift the Hounds to their fifth consecutive victory.

INS & OUTS
Throughout the entire contest, the Greyhounds' ability to utilize each piece of their lineup continued to play a large factor in their win streak. The Hounds had a number of players make big contributions, including three different student-athletes with at least 16 points and four in double figures. The game's top two scorer's, Drury and Mickey Sasson (18 points), combined to shoot 14 for 18 from the field, helping the Greyhounds shot 55 percent as a team. UIndy's buckets came off of 23 assists as a squad, with eight coming from Drury (a career-high), seven from Mya Scheidt and six more from Sasson.

The Greyhounds' first half defensive stance helped in holding the lead for over 83 percent of the game, with the Bearcats shooting just 36 percent from the field early. The Hounds tallied their second time in the last three games of recording four blocks, as Lauren With recorded a pair for the first time this season. UIndy only allowed seven second-chance points in the entire game and four Hounds totaled at least five rebounds in the game. Drury led the game with seven boards, Sasson and With earned six each and Liz Alsot totaled five off the bench in 14 minutes of action.

HOUND BYTES
Sasson on the team's win streak …
"We owe it to coach [Wodrich], my teammates look up to me and I trust them a lot. We feel the pressure but we're loving it currently. We need to get better in the second half; we let them get too comfortable at times and we got to clean it up."

Assistant Coach Evan Dodd on Drury's scoring on Saturday …
"Taylor Drury works incredibly hard in the gym, and she gives a ton of matchup problems for people. We always say that she's got great hands and can shoot it from the outside, but she's very versatile in what she does and can hurt teams in a variety of ways."

Head Coach Kristin Wodrich on the team's game plan going into Saturday … 
"We tried to get up and down the floor a little more since our last time against them, but didn't change much of our game plan. Overall we tried to stay a little more aware of our adjustments we needed to make. We have a lot of things to clean up before then, and you got to play a pretty good game to beat a team like Drury."

UP NEXT
The Greyhounds will spend next week in Missouri, taking on two road contests to help push for a top-four spot in the GLVC Point Rating System. The Hounds will first take on the No. 4 Drury Panthers in Springfield, kicking off on Feb. 18 at 6:45 p.m. ET.
