The Antelopes started off strong with a tough defense, while UTRGV had great defense all night. As a team, UTRGV forced 26 turnovers with 12 steals. Head coach Lane Lord explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[su_quote]\u201cAs long as you play defense, you\u2019ve always got a chance to win games and we were just outstanding on the defensive end. No excuses at all, we just really struggled to score, we got a lot of open looks, and we\u2019ve got to give GCU a lot of credit, we missed a lot of open shots.\u201d<br><br><em>-Lane Lord, UTRGV women&#8217;s basketball head coach<\/em>[\/su_quote]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UTRGV\u2019s starting five put up 37 points. Point guard Amara Graham added 18 points. Da&#8217;jah Daniel led Grand Canyon University with 15 points. Forward Madison Northcutt forced 12 rebounds, and three steals for the Vaqueras. Graham shot 5 for 7, 71%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[su_quote]\u201cIt just started with being aggressive.\u00a0\u00a0From the jump, I just wanted to give my team a chance- I mean- baskets just weren&#8217;t going in. So, I feel like if I could get to the basket, kick it out, whether I shoot the lay up or not. As long as we do something to get us going, because we had a really poor shooting night. But we stuck with it, didn&#8217;t give up and that was good.\u201d<br><br>&#8211;<em>Amara Graham, UTRGV women&#8217;s basketball point guard<\/em>[\/su_quote]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UTRGV outscored 30 to 22 after halftime. The Vaqueras led the game for most of the second half. The win put the UTRGV women\u2019s basketball team at 12-10 in the Western Athletic Conference.
