[Women's Basketball] Rio women pull away, drop Celtics
Rio Grande Sports Information
RIO GRANDE, Ohio - It's not often that a team can suffer through 28 turnovers and still find a way to win.
But shooting 61 percent in the second half and out rebounding the opposition by a nearly 2-to-1 margin proved to be the perfect recipe to get the job done.
The University of Rio Grande piled up 54 second half points and placed six players in double figures en route to a 90-80 triumph over Carlow University, Saturday afternoon, in River States Conference women's basketball action at the Newt Oliver Arena.
The game was part of the annual Newt Oliver Coaches' Classic.
Rio Grande improved to 7-6 overall and 2-0 in the RSC with its second consecutive win and its 22nd in 24 all-time meetings with the Celtics.
Carlow dropped to 6-6 overall and 1-2 in league play.
