Ashton Feldhaus Postgame Interview

LAKE CHARLES—McNeese's Carley Hamilton tied her career high of 20 points Sunday afternoon against Louisiana Tech but the Lady Techsters inside game was too much for the Cowgirls in an 82-59 women's basketball loss.
 
The loss for the Cowgirls is their first of the season as they fall to 2-1 while La. Tech remains undefeated at 3-0 with the win.
 
Hamilton was the only Cowgirl to score in double figures, ending the game 7 of 14 from the field and 3 of 7 from behind the arc.
 
La. Tech was led in scoring by Hillary Dawson's 21 points, one of four Lady Techsters to score in double figures.  Brittani Wells finished the game with a double double (12 pts., 10 reb.)
 
La. Tech scored 50 of their 82 points in the paint and outrebounded the Cowgirls 40-23.
 
The Lady Techsters held a slim two-point (18-16) lead after the first period then outscored the Cowgirls 19-6 in the second quarter to lead 37-22 at the half.
 
With La. Tech leading by 21 points (63-42) with 8:15 left to play, McNeese went on a 11-3 run to get as close as 13 points with just over six minutes to play.  La. Tech ended the game by outscoring the Cowgirls 16-6 in the final five and a half minutes of the game.
