Warhawk Women Remain Unbeaten with Win over Wheaton

The No. 5 University of Wisconsin-Whitewater women's basketball remained undefeated with a 73-45 win over Wheaton College in Kachel Gymnasium Saturday afternoon. 

Bri McCurdy (St. Croix Falls, Wis./St. Croix Falls) set the tone with a three-pointer right out of the gate. A 7-2 run over the next few minutes gave the Warhawks a 10-2 advantage. With 2:26 left in the first period, the lead hit double digits, 18-8, on Kacie Carollo's (Whitewater, Wis./Whitewater) driving layin. Lunden Alexander (Dolton, Ill./Thornwood) hit a pair of free throws with 1:27 left to make it 20-11 for the final points of the first. 

Carollo scored the first six points of the second quarter to extend the margin to 26-11 and the Warhawks would hold a double figure lead the rest of the way. 

Twenty-one Warhawks saw the floor with 12 entering the scoring column. UW-Whitewater shot over 45-percent from the floor while holding Wheaton to under 30-percent from the field.
