FORT WORTH, TX: The Texas Wesleyan University women’s basketball team improved to 17-9 on the year after a win over Dallas Christian College by a score of 86-61 on Saturday at the Sid Richardson Center.

Dallas Christian played the Lady Rams tough in the first half. The lead changed hands 12 times in the first half and the Lady Crusaders took the lead 27-26 with 2:42 remaining with a 3-pointer from Stevie Sanford.

Kim Gatlin quickly answered with a three of her own to take the lead 29-27 with 1:41 left in the half.

The Lady Rams took a 31-27 lead at the break.

In the second half, the Lady Rams came out with greater intensity; pushing a tired Lady Crusaders team to the edge.  Dallas Christian played the final 1:42 with only three players after seeing three of their athletes foul out of the contest.

The second half saw strong play from the entire Lady Ram squad with Kim Gatlin topping the list.
