Up Next: South Dakota State, Saturday 2:00 pm at Baxter

TULSA, Okl. - The Mavericks were unable to slow the Summit League's highest scoring offense, losing 95-57 to Oral Roberts University in Tulsa.

After shooting just 29% from the field in the opening half, the Mavericks (9-12, 1-7) opened strongly in the second half, outscoring the Golden Eagles (16-5, 6-2) 25-22 in the third quarter. Sophomore Alana Powell led the Mavericks with a career-high 17 points. Senior Grace Cave had 7 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist while freshman Harriet Ford delivered 7 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists. Freshman Daria Shelby chipped in a career-high 8 points on 4-4 shooting.
