Women’s Basketball Defeats (RV) Stillman 62-55 on Saturday Afternoon

MOUNT VERNON, Ga. – Brewton-Parker women's basketball returned to Gillis Gymnasium on Saturday with a contest against (RV) Stillman (Ala.) to continue conference play.

The Lady Barons (9-3, 2-2 SSAC) slipped past the Tigers (7-2, 0-2 SSAC) in a tough, 62-55 win to earn the second conference win of the season.

"We beat a really good team today," Head Coach Steve Edwards said. "We matched their intensity and were really good defensively, so much that we struggled a little on the offensive side."

"I told our group that we will have to win games this way throughout the season," Edwards mentioned. "We were in a battle today and it was good to see us finish the game well against a tough team."
