ST. LOUIS—The UIndy women's basketball team closed its regular season with a 77-72 comeback win at Maryville University Saturday afternoon. Led by a game-high 24 points from fifth-year senior Taylor Drury, the Greyhounds scored 49 points after in the fourth quarter to help overcome a double-digit deficit at halftime.
 
INS & OUTS
Down 38-28 at the midway point, the Hounds quickly cut into the margin with some proficient long-range shooting. Marissa Knobloch drilled a pair of 3-pointers for the half's first points, while Drury followed suit with two triples of her own, putting the visitors up 45-44 to completely evaporate the Saints' lead.
 
Maryville would rebuild a five-point edge late in the third, but the Hounds' fourth-quarter output ultimately proved too much. UIndy shot 53 percent in the final period, adding four more 3s and sinking 7 of 8 free throw attempts to outpace its host down the stretch.
 
Four Greyhounds finished in double figures, with Drury pouring in a season high in the final regular-season contest of her career. The Pekin, Ind., native finished 9 for 20 (.450) from the floor and 5 of 10 from behind the arc while adding seven rebounds.
 
Knobloch compiled 17 points and Lauren With 15. Maya Scheidt flirted with a triple-double, going for 11 points, a career-high 11 rebounds and seven assists.
 
INSIDE THE BOX
- UIndy managed a +12 rebounding margin for the game and committed just nine turnovers.
- The victory broke a four-game skid versus Maryville, good for the first win in the series since January 7, 2017.
- UIndy's 32 3-point attempts marked its highest total since the 2020-21 season opener (34).
 
UP NEXT
The Greyhounds have a quick turnaround before hitting the road again for the opening round of the GLVC Tournament this Monday evening. UIndy earned the No. 9 seed and will thus head to Bolivar, Mo., to take on eighth-seed Southwest Baptist. Tip time is still TBD.
