Panthers show no weakness in win at Trevecca

OWENSBORO, KY - All but one person scored for Kentucky Wesleyan as they pounced on Trevecca Nazarene early and ran away for the 73-49 win. Tahlia Walton shot 8-11 from the field and scored a team high 22 points in the win.

With the win the Panthers move to 16-9 (13-6 G-MAC) while Trevecca falls to 4-20 (3-15 G-MAC).

The teams went back-and-forth in the opening quarter, with Trevecca taking a 10-9 lead with 3:48 to go in the frame. Wesleyan then preceded to go on a 7-0 run to close the quarter, and after a Corina Conley three at the buzzer Wesleyan led 16-10. 

Capped off by a three from Shiya Hoosier, Wesleyan opened up the second quarter on an 11-3 run to take a 27-13 lead two and a half minutes in. Tahlia Walton balled out in the second quarter, scoring 13 points in the frame, including the final four points of the quarter to give Wesleyan a 42-20 halftime lead. 

Cali Nolot extended the Panther's lead to 27 with five straight points to open the second half. Walton went on a personal 7-0 run in the middle of the third quarter and gave Wesleyan a 56-23 lead with 3:26 left in the quarter. Nolot and Walton scored 15 of Wesleyan's 17 third quarter points and the Panthers went into the final 10 minutes up 59-32. 

In the middle of the fourth quarter, three straight buckets from Emma Leis, Gracie Adams and Emma Johnson gave Wesleyan a 35-point lead, their largest of the game. The Panthers had no problems the rest of the quarter and went on to win 73-49. 

Tahlia Walton led the way with 22 points, while Cali Nolot also hit double-figures with 14. Walton hauled in seven boards and Shiya Hoosier tallied three helpers. 

KWC shot 28-63 (44.4%) from the field and 6-22 (27.3%) from behind the arc. TNU shot 16-49 (32.7%) from the field and 6-22 (27.3%) from three. Both teams shot 6-22 from three and 11-15 from the free throw line, but Wesleyan scored 33 points off 25 Trevecca turnovers.
