Erik Holth, CBC Sports Information Director

            Conway, Ark. – Opening the second half of American Midwest Conference play at home this evening, Central Baptist College women's basketball took on the Eutectics of the University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis. CBC (7-9, 2-9 AMC) trailed by 14 at halftime and fell 81-63 to UHSP (13-5, 9-2 AMC).

            Diana Rivera led the Lady Mustangs in scoring with 14 points and she was joined in double figures by Rhys Anderson, who had 12, Caroline Citty, who scored 10 and Tamara Christmas who had 10 off the bench. The Lady Mustangs won the turnover battle, committing 14 to forcing 15 and led by five with 4:51 left in the first but couldn't contain the UHSP offense which shot 60 percent from the floor for the game and 91 percent at the free throw line.

            Next up for the Lady Mustangs is a visit from Cottey on Saturday afternoon, which will be the Comets' first ever trip to Reddin Fieldhouse as an AMC foe. Tipoff is scheduled for 1 p.m.
