COLUMBIA, KY - Bre Elder and Jamie Cummings recorded double-doubles to lead the Lindsey Wilson women's basketball team to its first win of the season, a 78-64 victory over Mid-Continent (KY) University Tuesday, November 5, 2013, at Biggers Sports Arena.




Elder scored 22 points on 10-29 shooting with 11 rebounds while Cummings totaled 15 points on 6-11 shooting and 11 boards. Kayla Richardson chipped in going 5-6 on free throws.

Lindsey Wilson took control early, going up 27-17 to lead by ten. Mid-Continent was able to climb back and trim the lead to two at 29-27, but the Blue Raiders went on a 4-2 run to take a 33-29 lead into the half.

Mid-Continent kept Lindsey Wilson close early in the second half, but the Blue Raiders kept up the pressure to go up 78-59 for a 19-point lead. Mid-Continent scored seven points, including a late Trina Valencia three-pointer, but it proved to be too big of a lead to overcome.
