BOX SCORE

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - Senior Alex Anderson (Stone Mountain, Ga.) posted a game-high 16 points to lead Chattanooga (19-3, 11-0) to a 71-55 victory over Appalachian State (5-16, 2-8) Saturday evening in Southern Conference action at The McKenzie Arena. The victory is the Lady Mocs 14^th in a row and 15^th consecutive Southern Conference regular season win dating back to last season.

With a narrow 32-28 lead at the half, Chattanooga opened the second twenty minutes of play by draining back-to-back three-pointers and connecting on a pair of free-throws to extend its lead to 40-30 with 18:42 to play in the game. After several short bursts by the Mountaineers narrowed the gap to 44-38 at the 15:05 mark, the Lady Mocs responded with a dominating 25-5 run to push their lead back into double-digits for good at 69-43 with 4:29 to play. The Lady Mocs defense held ASU scoreless for more than five minutes late in the second half before closing out the 71-55 victory.

The game started on a different note, as the Mountaineers put together an 8-0 run to take a 12-4 advantage at the 14:48 mark before extending that lead to 21-9 with 9:41 to play. The Lady Mocs offense came to life, however, registering an 8-0 run of their own behind a pair of three-pointers from junior Erin Ogan (Knoxville, Tenn.) and senior Brooke Hand (Moulton, Ala.) to draw to within 21-17 with 7:10 to go in the half. Chattanooga then closed out the half by outscoring Appalachian State 15-7 to take a 32-28 lead into the break and set the stage for a dominate second half.

Junior Brittany Mixon led the way for the Mountaineers with team-highs of 12 points and six rebounds while sophomore guard Gigi Thomas rounded out the double-figure scorers with 10 points and five rebounds. Senior guard Whitney Tossie added eight points and four rebounds while freshman guard Frances Hernandez chipped in with eight points on the evening.

For Chattanooga, Hand was one of three Lady Mocs who joined Anderson in double-figures with 13 points as she connected on four three-pointers while sophomore Shanara Hollinquest (Sylacauga, Ala.) finished with 13 points and eight rebounds. Senior Laura Hall (Oliver Springs, Tenn.) capped off UTC's double-digit scorers with 11 points and a solid all-around game with a game-high six assists and four rebounds.
