Defenders Run Away With 13th Win

HOW IT HAPPENED
The Dordt Defender women's basketball team secured its 13th win in a row to start the season with an 85-53 victory over the Mount Marty Lancers in GPAC play on Saturday afternoon, December 31.  The Defenders took control with a 15 point run in the first quarter and steadily increased the lead for the road victory.



Mount Marty scored the first points of the game as both teams struggled early to find the bottom of the net.  The Lancers went up 2-0 with 5:56 left in the period but Faith Van Holland answered back almost immediately with a pair of free throws.  The free shots ignited a 15 point run that included points by six different Defenders.  Mount Marty followed with four straight points but a Bailey Beckman basket ended the period and started another 15 point run that didn't end until the 6:13 mark.

Mount Marty put together a nine-point run of its own to get within 35-17 but Beckman capped a seven-point Dordt string with her fifth three-point shot of the first half and sent the teams to the locker room with Dordt up 42-17.  The streak of points reached 15 after a Karly Gustafson basket at the 7:08 mark and Dordt was up 65-32 when the third quarter ended.

Janie Schoonhoven scored three layups in a row for the Defenders as the lead ballooned to 71-35 and Dordt went on to win 85-53.
