Box Score LETHBRIDGE – Building on a strong defensive game Friday night, the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns women’s basketball team used their momentum to roll over the University of Manitoba Bisons 94-75 Saturday at the 1^st Choice Savings Centre.  Employing a combination of domination on the boards as well as a season high 20 assists, the ‘Horns broke open a 20 point lead in the second quarter to close out a sweep of the visiting Bisons. 
 
Leading the way for the ‘Horns was second-yeard guard, Ali Cameron with 18 points.  Posts Kim Veldman and Deanna Dotts added 13 apiece while Stephanie Inman grabbed a team-high six rebounds.  Senior guard Lauren Taal shone on defense, nabbing 13 steals and providing much of the spark that led to the ‘Horns success in transition.
 
For the second game in a row, the Bisons were led by senior forward, Mubo Ilelaboye, who had 18 on the night.  Sharee Carmona-Galdamez had 10, while Maria Pawlyshyn pulled down five boards.
 
Though U of M held a one point lead after the first stanza, it marked the last time they would hold the upper hand on the scoreboard.  The ‘Horns would lead by as many as 32 in the fourth quarter riding huge second and third quarters in which they outscored the Bisons 58-28. 
 
“We just came out and decided that we needed a win this weekend,” said ‘Horns player of the game, Dotts.  We had a lot of fun and everything just clicked for us today.  We got up and pressured the ball because they didn’t handle the pressure very well yesterday and that allowed us to get our transition offense rolling and playing like that is a lot of fun.”
 
The ‘Horns are already out of the playoff race, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have goals as the season winds down.  “We want to go 2-0 in Brandon and be only team to take one from Regina,” continued Dotts.  It would be nice to finish strong and start building for next year.”
 
The ‘Horns will travel to Brandon next weekend for their last away game of the season and will hope to keep the 0-16 Bobcats from a win.  The game will tip off at 6:00 pm and will webcast on canadawest.tv.
