Lady Barons Slip in 70-61 Senior Day Loss to Mobile

MOUNT VERNON, Ga. – Brewton-Parker Women's Basketball hosted Mobile (Ala.) on Saturday for a Southern States Athletic Conference matchup in Mount Vernon, Ga. for Senior Day.

The Lady Barons (15-10, 7-8 SSAC) slipped to the Rams (22-4, 14-3 SSAC) in a 70-61 defeat in Gillis Gymnasium.

"We fought hard today," Head Coach Steve Edwards said. "Mobile made some great plays down the stretch. They are much tougher than we are, and I believe that is why we could not get it done today."

"Our will and effort are there, but we aren't making enough winning plays in big moments to beat really good teams," Edwards said.

How It Happened | First Quarter

Mobile struck first at the 8:42 mark, but the Lady Barons managed to score seven unanswered in the following two minutes of play led by a three-pointer from A'Aliyah Clay. The Rams scored treys at 6:35 and 5:46 to cut the deficit back to one point.

Brewton-Parker followed with a 5-2 stretch with a bucket from Angel McRae and a trey from Keonya Mincey for a 14-10 lead with 2:56 left to play. Mobile finished the quarter with a 7-0 run capped by a three-pointer to lead 17-14.

How It Happened | Second Quarter

Mobile landed a 7-0 punch early in the second quarter to advance the lead to 24-14 within the first two or so minutes. An "and-one" play from Evans stopped the run and sparked an 8-1 run for the Lady Barons to pull the deficit down to three with 5:46 to play.

The Rams pieced together an 11-4 run over five minutes to close out the quarter shooting 5-for-11 for a 36-36 advantage at the break. UM outscored BPC 19-12 in the period.

How It Happened | Third Quarter

Brewton-Parker battled in the first five minutes of the third quarter, leading a 10-6 stretch of scoring over the Rams to cut the deficit to 42-36. Evans led the way with eight points. The visitors narrowly edged out the Lady Barons in the final five minutes of play with a 9-8 stretch.

Mobile shot 4-of-9 from the field while Brewton-Parker was just 3-for-11 from the floor and 1-of-3 from beyond the arc with McRae notching four points to lead. The Rams finished the third quarter with a 51-44 despite the Lady Barons outscoring UM 18-15 in the period.

How It Happened | Fourth Quarter

After two jumpers from Mobile, a pair of treys from Mincey, and two free throws from Tajahnae Wiggins pulled the UM lead down to 55-52 with 7:55 to play. The Rams responded with a 12-2 run over the next six minutes of play, boosting to a 67-54 lead with less than a minute left.

The Lady Barons notched a 7-3 run in the final 50 seconds, but it was too late as the visitors managed to hold onto the lead, winning 70-61.
