Hedge leads Aggies to sweep of No. 5 Lady Buffs on Senior Day

LAWTON - The Cameron Aggie women's basketball team earns their sixth straight win and third straight over a top-10 ranked opponent with a 70-60 win over No. 5/No.8 West Texas A&M behind Maighan Hedge's solid all-around game. 

The Cameron Aggies looked to continue their winning ways on Saturday afternoon as they welcomed in 5th ranked West Texas A&M. The Aggies were looking for their third straight win over a top-10 team, and sixth straight win overall on this streak. 

Prior to the start of regulation, Cameron women's basketball team honored their two graduating seniors, Logan Collyer and Jazmin Luster, for their hard work on and off the court as Aggies. 

CU picked up right where they left off, forcing five turnovers in as many minutes after setting a program high in steals a game ago against these same Buffs. Cameron took an 11-8 lead as the Aggie 2-3 zone continued to give the Buffs fits whenever they could break the CU press. 

Stephanie Peterson continued to be a thorn in the Buffs side, Peterson 3-points and a steal in his first five minutes of action. Peterson finished the half with five points, a pair of rebounds, an assist, and a steal. 

By the time the first 20 minutes passed, the Aggies forced 18 Buff turnovers and scored 17-of-their-39 points off WT turnovers. 

In the first half, CU already had two players in double-digits. Maighan Hedge poured in 11 points while Kiara Lovings produced 10 points off the CU bench. 

The Aggies continued to dominate, frustrate, and confuse the Buffs who had no answer for the switching CU defense. The Aggies saw their lead grow to 16 points over the 5th ranked Buffs. 

The Aggies hung-tough, staving off a few WT counterpunches before holding on to a ten-point win over the 5th ranked Buffs. 

Emma Andrews has now knocked off 3-straight top-ten teams, her team has now won six straight games, and is rounding into form at the perfect time. 

Maighan Hedge put a bow on her impeccable week as she poured in a game-high 18-points, dished out five assists while collecting as many rebounds. 
Lovings finished with 12, as Peterson added ten. Eight Aggies got in on the scoring in this one.

LaKya Leslie saw a stellar performance off the bench. Leslie added nine points, grabbed three rebounds, and drew a pivotal charge in the heat of the fourth quarter. 

Hedge also came away with three steals, as the Aggies earned eight steals in this game on their way to forcing 25 WT turnovers. The Melbourne, Australia native was able to out-duel the conference-leading scorer, entering this weekend, Lexi Hightower. Hightower, after an eight-point effort a day ago, came through with 17-points for WT and added eight rebounds and five assists, but turned the ball over seven times. 

The Aggies send the Buffs back to Canyon, Texas empty-handed are now 9-5 on the season. CU looks to let the good times roll into next week when they travel to Denton, Texas on Thursday, Feb. 25, to take on Texas Woman's before returning home to host the Pioneers in Lawton on Saturday afternoon.
