HAYS, Kan. – Lanie Page led five Tigers in double-figures with 13 points as Fort Hays State set a new school record for wins to start a season following an 84-41 victory over Bethany College Sunday afternoon at Gross Coliseum.

The 11-0 Tigers used an early 9-0 run to build a nine-point first quarter lead and were never really threatened after that. Following a 12-3 run by the Swedes (8-7) midway through the second quarter, FHSU closed out the first half on a 15-3 run to lead by 27 at the break.
