Lady Panthers surpass last season's win total

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – For the second time this season, the Clark Atlanta Lady Panthers defeated SIAC West Division leader Miles College, earning a 74-59 victory Monday evening at Knox-Windham Gymnasium. The win pushes Clark Atlanta past last season's total of 15 victories, improving to 16-5 overall and 10-3 in conference play.

Trinity Jones led the way with a season-high 25 points on an efficient 9-of-17 shooting (52%), including 5-of-9 (55%) from 3-point range. Atreonia Garner added 22 points on 10-of-19 shooting (52%) and grabbed a game-high seven rebounds. Amberly Brown contributed a season-high 13 points, shooting 54% from the field.

Sophomore Myori Pruitt facilitated the offense with a game-high seven assists.

Clark Atlanta set the tone defensively in the first half, limiting Miles to single-digit scoring in both the first and second quarters. Behind 17 first-half points from Jones, the Lady Panthers built a commanding 41-15 lead at halftime.

Miles responded after the break, holding Clark Atlanta to just nine third-quarter points. However, Garner and Brown combined for half of the Lady Panthers' 24 points in the fourth quarter, sealing the 74-59 victory.

Clark Atlanta shot 51% from the field, 42% from 3-point range and 53% from the free-throw line while holding Miles to below 38% from both the field and beyond the arc. The Lady Panthers' defense forced 30 turnovers, converting them into 32 points.
