Press Release

Lady Rams break losing streak, defeat Huston-Tillotson, 3-0
September 13, 2003

     AUSTIN, Texas - Junior Cortney Johansen dished out 50 assists to lead Texas Wesleyan past Huston-Tillotson, 30-26, 30-14, 30-24, Saturday afternoon in Red River Athletic Conference action.

     After opening the season with two victories, the Lady Rams dropped their next two games, including a 3-0 loss to Houston Baptist, Friday night.

     "The girls rebounded well after losing last night," head coach Rick Johansen said. "We played well in every facet of the game."

     Leading the way for Texas Wesleyan (3-2, 2-1 RRAC) was sophomore Rachel Loftin who finished with 13 kills, two aces and three blocks, while junior Tiffany Porterfield added 10 kills.

     Freshman Sara Southerland tallied five aces and junior Nicky Davis added three blocks.

     "It is good to get back above .500 in conference-play," Johansen said. "That is the sign of a good team, when you can put the bad matches behind you and concentrate on the task at hand."

     The Lady Rams will be back in action Tuesday when they host Southeastern Oklahoma State at 7 p.m., at the Sid Richardson Gymnasium. Admission is free.
