COLUMBUS, Ohio – The UIndy women's basketball, looking for its second road win of the weekend, hit a snag on Sunday afternoon with a 76-60 loss at in-region Ohio Dominican.
 
Patricia Chikamba followed up her career-best scoring performance with yet another impressive offensive outing, totaling 24 points on 10-of-16 shooting. The junior has now posted three straight games of at least 20 points.
 
Junior transfer Jaelynne Murray finished with a season-high 10 points in 27 minutes off the bench.
 
INS & OUTS
The Greyhounds jumped out to a 8-2 lead in the opening minutes with Chikamba joining Ruby Garner and Amyrah Sapenter for early buckets. However, the Panthers responded with a 14-3 run to end the first quarter with a lead; UIndy would not regain the advantage of the scoreboard the rest of the afternoon.
 
Elana Wells tallied four straight points late in the first half, inching the Hounds back within a single possession. A scoreless stretch in those final three minutes propelled ODU to a double-digit lead at the break.
 
Murray recorded six of her 10 points in the fourth period, as the Greyhounds outscored the Panthers, 19-16.
