On a night where both teams struggled to make shots, the Fort Hays State Lady Tigers had just enough offense defeating Northeastern State 55-39. FHSU ends the regular season on a three-game win streak and improves to 19-7 overall and 12-7 in the MIAA. Northeastern drops their sixth straight and falls to 10-16 and 7-12 in the conference.

Both teams struggled in the first half. Fort Hays State hit just one of their first 10 shots while the RiverHawks missed their first 11. The Lady Tigers eventually put together a 10-2 run and led 24-15 at the half despite going 0-for-10 from beyond the arc. NSU shot just 18-percent in the first 20 minutes (5-27).

Kate Lehman recorded her second triple-double with 10 points, 17 rebounds and 10 blocked shots. Beth Bohuslavsky scored 12 and Kate Edwards 10.

FHSU held the RiverHawks to 21-percent shooting and their second lowest point total of the season.

The Lady Tigers are back at home Monday at 7pm for a first-round game in the MIAA tournament.
