Box Score     

     DENTON, Texas -
Senior Cortney Johansen registered 35 assists to break Texas Wesleyan's career assist record. Johnasen helped lead the Lady Rams to a victory over Texas Women's, 3-0, Tuesday evening at Magee Arena.

     Texas Wesleyan (11-2) outscored the Lady Pioneers, 30-27, 31-29, 30-27.

     Johansen passes former Lady Ram Cassie Underwood who dished out 4,605 from 1994-96. The Colleyville, Texas native has been Texas Wesleyan's starting setter for all of her four seasons.
